Slots at Arlington good for horse racing
Illinois is losing business to other states in the gambling industry. The Illinois board would allow slots at Arlington Park. Adding slots at Arlington Park will not kill horse racing in Illinois, but should bring more competitive horses into Illinois each year. This also would allow for bigger purses per race at Arlington Park.
Next, the bill would create more revenue and jobs for the park.
The Illinois house should allow this bill to be passed through so slots can be allowed at Arlington Park.
