{Kentucky}...Monday, the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission approved Ellis Park's request to offer wagering on past horse races. Ron Geary, owner and president of the track, says it is going to increase purses and revenue for the state and it is going to result in 65-85 new full-time jobs. The Henderson track plans to install 252 machines on the ground floor of its clubhouse building during the first few months of 2012. "Instant Racing" is already available at Kentucky Downs in Franklin. In September, it became the first in the state to offer the game. The Family Foundation of Kentucky has a case before the Kentucky Court of Appeals arguing that it is illegal.
