Fair Grounds and Slot Machines

The Fair Grounds might be saying that the races are the thrust and the focus of their establishment, but they seem to be the only ones who think that. In fact, everyone else is simply waiting for the slot machines’ permanent facility to be opened so they can play to their heart’s content.

Churchill Downs, Inc. is the track’s parent company, and they say that they have been working hard to get people in to watch the races. They say that the slot machines are simply a means to an end. They have been preparing for race day, and the slot machines have simply helped them make it better than it was.

The slot machines have enabled the track to increase their purses, which ultimately leads to the nation’s top horses wanting to compete in their races. They say that by bringing in the better horses, they ultimately bring in more clients. People want to see horses run that they recognize from the bigger, more successful tracks and they want to be that kind of track.

They say that they will be promoting the slot machine parlor as well, but it will not be their main focus. After all, it is the slot machines that are enabling them to have such a better year. They say that last year their purses averaged somewhere around $342,000 a day. This year, they will be averaging closer to $375,000 a day. This is a substantial difference for the track, and enables them to compete on a much higher level.
