(3) The intent of this chapter is to give licensed gaming entities the authority to conduct casino simulcasting at Category 2, Category 3 and Category 4 licensed facilities in order to expand horse racing opportunities through simulcasting and, thereby, enhancing the viability of this Commonwealth's race horse and commercial gaming industry.
