(a) General rule.--
(1) Horse racing shall be conducted consistent with 4 Pa.C.S. § 1303 (relating to additional Category 1 slot machine license requirements).
(2) The required racing days under this section and 4 Pa.C.S. § 1303(a)(2) and (b) may be waived or modified by the commission if the waiver or modification has been agreed to by the horsemen's organization and the licensed racing entity at the racetrack where the racing days are to be scheduled or raced.
(3) The provisions of 4 Pa.C.S. § 1303(d) shall not apply if the reason for noncompliance with that section by a licensed racing entity is the cancellation of racing days due to the commission's inability to properly regulate and oversee the conduct of horse racing in this Commonwealth due to inadequate funding.
(b) Certification.--The commission shall submit to the Secretary of Revenue the approved number of racing days for each licensed racing entity, including the following information:
(1) the names and addresses of the licensed racing entity;
(2) the names and addresses of the owners, officers and general managers of the licensed racing entity; and
(3) any other information the commission deems appropriate.
(c) Cancellation.--
(1) If a racing day is canceled by a licensed racing entity for reasons beyond the licensed racing entity's control, the commission shall grant the licensed racing entity the right to conduct that racing day in the same or the next ensuing calendar year, if schedules permit.
(2) A director of a bureau established under section 9311 (relating to State Horse Racing Commission), after consultation with the licensed racing entity and the horsemen's organization at the racetrack, may cancel a race if it is determined that fewer than six horses have entered the race.
