Texas race tracks fund work stock plan with wagering pennies
Texas breeders rapidly embraced a state program using pennies from pari mutuel wagers to finance work animal improvements. About $15,000 was raised in nine months with $10,000 spent on 20 stallions and 23 jacks imported from Missouri and Kansas. Breeders demanded nearly half of the 50 animals planned for spring, with more stock to be bought if funds allow.
