The Texas Racing Commission has proposed rules to provide for pari-mutuel wagering on historical racing at Texas race tracks in order to provide higher purses for live racing conducted in Texas. This will promote economic development and jobs in the Texas agricultural, horse breeding, horse training, greyhound breeding, and greyhound training industries, as well as other racing related industries. I support the Texas Racing Commission proposed rules that permit historical racing in Texas.
When I visit TX I enjoy the racing. As an Arabian lover, I've tried to support Arabian racing efforts when I could. I've respected how breeders in TX have acted responsibly in their training methods as well as how they market their horses when their racing careers are done. I very much support this new source of income.

I do not currently have any horses racing but our industry needs a boost anywhere we can get one to increase purse monies and daily handle at Arabian racing venues.

It is time for Texas to keep our tax dollar in Texas rather than at the casionos in LA, NM, OK

Texas horse racing needs this to pass! Give Texas horsemen a fighting chance against our neighboring states' gaming edge.

I'm am peeved with groups of people wanting horse racing to be banned. There's horse that must enjoy that racing, and so horse racing ought to continue. I'm not seeing what the practices are for treating the animals well involved in the racing. That concerns me, but I believe racing meant for some horses, and that they always have life after injury.
