Finance Minister Dwight Duncan has been falsely referring to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Slots at Racetrack revenue sharing program as a subsidy. His claim is that the Government has been providing a $345 million annual subsidy to Ontario's Horse Racing Industry. In a recent fundraising email to supporters, the Ontario Liberal Party suggested that they are "choosing to support our youngest learners over wealthy race track owners". According to OLG's financial statements, the Government of Ontario is receiving $1.1 billion per year from the Slots at Racetracks Program.

1996 Meadowlands Cup [02:08]
Dramatic Gold won a narrow stretch duel tonight to capture the $750000 Buick Meadowlands Cup, the richest thoroughbred race ever held in New Jersey. Ridden by Kent Desormeaux, Dramatic Gold held off Formal Gold by three-quarters of a length. The 5-year-old covered the mile and an eighth in 1 minute 48 seconds and paid $12.20 for a $2 bet in winning his third race in eight starts this year. Geri, the even-money favorite, finished next to last in the field of 11, his first finish out of the money this year. Mt. Sassafras was third. Gulf Reckoning, who was a perfect 4 for 4 on the Meadowlands main track, led the field through the first three-quarters of a mile. He tired to run fourth and was followed by Eltish, Run Softly, Devil's Honor, November Sunset, Victory Speech, Geri and Stephanotis.
