More complications. It appears that the Simulcast business took a dive when the gambling winnings tax was implemented, 2009-2010. A track spokesman said they lost 100 jobs. The House calendar in March of 2011 reporting out HB 229-FN-A also referred to the tax as the cause of lost business. That bill repealed the tax in the spring of 2011.
