ANNUAL REPORT 2013 | EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

To:

The Honorable Andrew M. Cuomo, Governor Members of the New York State Legislature Robert L. Megna, Director of the Budget July 16, 2014

On behalf of the New York State Gaming Commission, I respectfully submit the Commission’s 2013 Annual Report, as required by Chapter 346 of the Laws of 1973. Incorporated into this report is the Simulcast Report as required by the Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law Section 1002.2. Effective February 1, 2013, the functions of the Racing and Wagering Board and the Division of the Lottery were merged into the New York State Gaming Commission, which was established by Chapter 60 of the Laws of 2012. The Gaming Commission provides all-encompassing regulatory oversight of all gaming in New York State, including the Lottery, horse racing, Indian gaming, video lottery facilities, and charitable gaming. The Division of the Lottery produced combined sales and net win from the traditional lottery and video lottery businesses of $9.23 billion, producing a profit of $3.17 billion for education for fiscal year 2013-2014, a 4.2 percent increase over the prior fiscal year. This marked the 14th consecutive year of growth in revenue for the most profitable Lottery in North America, and the most revenue ever contributed to a sole beneficiary in a single fiscal year in the history of the North American Lottery industry. In the Division of Horse Racing, the total betting at New York State tracks from all sources in 2013 was $849,376,151. The Division imposed 957 sanctions for violations of racing laws, rules and regulations at both harness and Thoroughbred tracks. The rulings include, but are not limited to, driving and riding infractions, general conduct violations, human and equine drug violations, general business practice violations and several other rule and law violations. The main office of the Gaming Commission issued 226 violations that were not assigned to a specific track. Fines levied in 2013 totaled $108,400. The Division issued 38,121 licenses to participate in racing in 2013, including multi-year licenses that were active during the year. The Division continues to be vigilant in monitoring conditions and circumstances at New York racetracks to ensure the safety of the equine athlete and its rider or driver. In 2013, the Gaming Commission and the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine began a formal search for a New York State Equine Medical Director to oversee the health and safety of horses at all New York State harness and Thoroughbred racetracks and to oversee all veterinarians at State racetracks. The international search concluded with the appointment of Scott E. Palmer, VMD as the state’s first Equine Medical Director. The Division of Gaming continued to provide oversight and monitoring of games at the State’s nine video lottery facilities and five Class III Native American facilities. With the passage of a constitutional amendment to permit full casino gaming in the state in November 2013, the Commission will provide regulatory oversight of the future casinos in New York State. The Gaming Commission appointed the individuals to serve on the Resort Gaming Facility Location Board, the body that will be responsible for evaluating casino applications and making selections of who is eligible to apply for a commercial gaming license in New York. The Division of Charitable Gaming continued to be responsible for the investigation, audit and monitoring of bell jar ticket sales, and the verification of the lawful disbursement of bingo, bell jar, Las Vegas night, and raffle proceeds by licensees in New York State. In 2013, the total amount wagered for all games was $248,835,748, and the profit to charities was $39,998,562. The New York State Gaming Commission looks forward to continuing to partner and collaborate with all our colleagues in state government and in the various gaming industries we regulate in order to make a better New York State.

Respectfully Submitted,

Robert Williams Executive Director

ANNUAL REPORT 2013

About the New York State Gaming Commission The New York State Gaming Commission regulates all aspects of gaming and gambling activity in the state, including horse racing and pari-mutuel wagering, Class III Indian Gaming, the state lottery (including video lottery terminals) and charitable gaming. The New York State Gaming Commission was formally created via Chapter 60 of the Laws of 2012 as part of the 2012/2013 Enacted State Budget. The measure merged the New York State Racing and Wagering Board with the New York State Division of Lottery into a single state agency. The law also consolidated the administration of the New York Thoroughbred Breeding & Development Fund and The Agriculture & New York State Horse Breeding Development Fund into the Office of Racing Promotion and Development under the umbrella of the Gaming Commission. The New York State Gaming Commission became effective February 1, 2013.

Mission Statement The New York State Gaming Commission’s mission is to ensure that all lawful gaming and horse racing activity conducted in this State is of the highest integrity, credibility and quality. Operating in the most efficient and transparent manner, the Commission conducts the New York Lottery and serves the best interests of the public by providing responsive and effective state gaming regulation. The Commission strives to ensure that all stakeholders in the gaming and horse racing industries, including the consumers who wager on activities regulated or operated by the Commission, are treated in an equitable and responsible manner and to promote the health and safety of horses and all participants in racing. By consolidating various regulatory functions into one oversight body with broad powers, the Commission seeks to ensure fair and strict regulation of all gaming activity while reducing costs and regulatory burdens to the gaming industry. The Commission aspires to provide the regulatory structure necessary for New York gaming activity to operate effectively in a global, evolving and increasingly competitive marketplace to generate revenue for aid to education and for the support of government, and to contribute to overall economic development and job creation in New York.

Division of Horse Racing Officiating and Integrity Each race conducted at a New York Thoroughbred racetrack is observed by three stewards: one employed by the Gaming Commission, one employed by the racing association and one employed by the Jockey Club. At the harness tracks, each race is observed by three judges who all serve as employees of the Gaming Commission. The stewards’ and judges’ viewing stand is located near the finish line of each racetrack and is equipped with several monitors to permit the viewing of multiple angles of each race. The stewards and judges observe the races to ensure that all conduct is in accordance with the rules and regulations. There are few racing jurisdictions that have equaled New York’s strong stand on integrity in horse racing. Over the past decade, more capable and qualified people have become stewards and presiding judges who have passed newly instituted coursework. Examples of the testing and preparation are: All presiding and associate judges and starters must be licensed by the United States Trotting Association (USTA) before being hired. A test must be passed to obtain each license. All full-time stewards must attend the Louisville Equine Steward Certification Class. They must also attend periodic seminars in order to keep their licenses valid. All current judges are retested periodically on the rules, equipment, medications and procedures and the training tests are updated frequently. New officials receive extensive on-the-job training at their new positions before being hired full-time.

Regulatory Activities During the calendar year 2013, the Gaming Commission imposed 957 sanctions for violations of racing laws, rules and regulations at both harness and Thoroughbred tracks. The rulings include, but are not limited to, driving and riding infractions, general conduct violations, human and equine drug violations, general business practice violations and several other rule and law violations. The main office of the Gaming Commission issued 226 violations that were not assigned to a specific track. Fines levied in 2013 totaled $108,400.

Racing Licensing Participants in New York State racing are required to obtain an occupational license. The character and integrity of all participants are important to the continuity of the sport. Every application is reviewed, updated and carefully processed by the Licensing unit before a license is issued. Also, by statute, fingerprinting is required of each applicant. Where it is believed that an applicant’s background or licensee’s conduct may warrant a finding that his/her participation in racing would be inconsistent with the public interest or the best interest of racing generally, a thorough investigation is conducted before action is taken in the form of a denial, suspension or revocation of his/her license.

ANNUAL REPORT 2013 | STATISTICS BY DIVISON Equine Drug Testing The Equine Drug Testing Program (EDTP) for all Thoroughbred and harness racing in New York State is performed by Morrisville State College in Morrisville, New York, under contract with New York State. The EDTP at Morrisville State College continues to be one of the leading equine drug-testing programs in the world. Equine drug testing is mandated by Chapter 47-A of the Consolidated Laws of the State of New York, The Racing, PariMutuel Wagering and Breeding Law in Section 902. When the EDTP detects and confirms the presence of a prohibited substance, the laboratory immediately informs the Division of Horse Racing and Pari-Mutuel Wagering staff and the General Counsel’s office. Division staff will immediately inform the steward or presiding judge at the racetrack where the horse’s sample originated, along with other appropriate Gaming Commission staff. An investigation into the matter is begun after the horse and its trainer are identified by the steward or presiding judge. The sample identifying numbers are matched by the steward or presiding judge to the previously locked documentation of collected samples. After identification, investigation into the circumstances including interviews with all involved parties begins. The trainer is afforded the option of having a “split” sample of the original tested at an approved laboratory of his/her choice at his/her expense. After the investigation is completed and all other information is gathered and studied, the licensee if appropriate, is assessed a penalty from the State steward or presiding judge. Should the licensee not agree with the penalty given, there is an appeals process that affords the licensee a full hearing before an appointed hearing officer. Upon receipt of the hearing officer’s completed report, a decision is rendered. A listing of the most commonly used medicines in the equine racing world is contained within the applicable rules. Also contained are the number of hours “out” (before race day) that these listed drugs may be administered. The only allowable medication on race day in New York is furosemide and it is only permitted to be administered to horses properly enrolled in a furosemide medication program as prescribed.

Division of Gaming Class III Indian Gaming Class III gaming compacts have been forged between the State of New York and the Oneida Indian Nation of New York; the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribe; and the Seneca Nation of Indians. These compacts, which uniquely guarantee the State specific regulatory authority regarding Class III gaming operations, met the State’s three goals deemed critical to its agreements with the tribes: to ensure public order and safety; to protect the integrity of the games authorized by the compacts; and to gain agreement on a sound system of fiscal and auditing controls over casino gaming operations to protect the interests of the wagering public, the tribes and the State of New York. Contained in each compact and appendices are standards and specifications for each game permitted to be played at an Indian casino, the rules and internal controls governing the operation of the gaming facility, procedures for certification and/or registration of gaming employees and companies transacting business with the casino, and a system of mediation of disputes. In 2013, inspectors employed by the Division of Gaming maintained a constant, 24-hour presence within each of the five Class III gaming facilities in New York, monitoring and confirming that gaming is operated pursuant to the respective Class III gaming compact. In general, each compact requires that all gaming employees and each of the representatives of the companies transacting business with a Class III gaming facility be found suitable prior to employment or the transaction of business. Gaming inspectors conducted compliance examinations to ensure that gaming operations such as dealing procedures, internal accounting and other controls strictly conformed to the applicable provisions of the respective Class III gaming compact.

Video Lottery Gaming The nine video lottery gaming facilities showed a 5 percent increase overall, far better than many other jurisdictions. Much of the increase can be attributed to Resorts World Casino New York City with a 14 percent increase. Electronic Table Games (ETGs) at Resorts World also continue to produce excellent results. The ETG part of the video lottery gaming program has grown from just over 1,200 units to 1,300 this year. More importantly, net win per day increased to $590. No new themes were introduced in 2013, but the two largest sites, Resorts World and Empire City Casino at Yonkers Raceway, reconfigured their gaming floors to meet customer demands. Notable events at video lottery gaming facilities include: Batavia Downs Gaming – Batavia Downs Gaming opened for business on October 4, 2005 in a small space on the second floor of the facility. In October 2013, management completed renovating the first floor and moved gaming operations into the new space. The first floor space is larger, with 145 more games, has an open layout, is brighter, and includes improved amenities. This has led to a significant improvement in revenue. Finger Lakes Gaming & Racetrack – Similar to Batavia, Finger Lakes Gaming & Racetrack also completed a major renovation in 2013. The gaming floor was expanded adding 358 games as well as several new amenities. Patrons are enjoying the new space resulting in modest revenue increases. Resorts World Casino New York City – Resorts World Casino New York City continues to set records and grow revenues. Resorts World actively works to improve the gaming floor to meet customer needs and surpassed $60 million in credits played in a single day. 34

Division of Charitable Gaming Charitable gaming occurs in the form of bingo, bell jar sales, the conduct of Las Vegas nights, and operation of raffles in each of the 62 counties of New York. The Gaming Commission’s Division of Charitable Gaming is responsible for the investigation, audit and monitoring of bell jar ticket sales, and the verification of the lawful disbursement of bingo, bell jar, Las Vegas night, and raffle proceeds by licensees in New York State. The Division of Charitable Gaming issues licenses to bingo and games of chance manufacturers and suppliers; collects the license fees paid by those licensees; determines that commercial bingo hall rental fees are fair and reasonable as a prerequisite to licensure by municipalities; approves bell jar ticket games each year; and issues bingo and games of chance identification numbers to applicant organizations as a prerequisite to their licensing by municipalities. The Division of Charitable Gaming assists members of licensed authorized organizations and manufacturers and distributors of gambling equipment and supplies by helping them to comply with State law and the Commission’s rules, and conducts training seminars for municipal clerks and law enforcement. The Division of Charitable Gaming also helps qualified organizations comply with the laws authorizing the conduct of profitable gaming fundraisers. Gaming Commission staff play a proactive role in the registration and training of authorized organizations conducting bingo, bell jar, raffle and table games at casino nights, carnivals and field days.
