A bill for an act relating to thoroughbred and quarter horse racing seasons.

Summary

The bill sets a minimum of 67 days for a thoroughbred season and 26 days for a quarter‑horse season, and it bars the two breeds from racing on the same day or at the same time unless the owners’ groups and the Polk County track licensee sign a written agreement. It affects horse‑racing owners, track operators and the state racing commission by tightening scheduling rules. The change aims to clarify season scheduling after a commission interpretation allowed mixed‑breed races without consent.
