Stockton Fair horse racing loses money again in western Kansas

The Stockton Fair's parimutuel horse racing, in its second year, again failed to turn a profit. Attendance and betting were low on Friday and Saturday, with only 2,400 seats around a three quarters empty grandstand. Total handle for Friday and Saturday was about $18,000, far from the projected growth. Monday’s opening day showed slight improvement, but overall losses continued as rainouts reduced potential revenue and insurance coverage offered little relief.
