West Virginia Racing Commission backs Boyle at Charles Town meet
Charles Town Race Track appears set for an inter meet at Charles Town from January 26 to February 16 after WV Racing Commission chairman Roy Graham sided with Albert J. Boyle in a dispute with the Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association over purse distribution. The association argues purses must total four percent of the track's pari mutuel handle, but the commission waived this rule to allow winter racing if Boyle and the horsemen reach an agreement.
