Not later than March 31 of the year following the event, the commission shall transfer to the credit of the general revenue fund any balance remaining in the Breeders' Cup Developmental Account after reimbursement of any remaining Breeders' Cup costs authorized under this section.(f)  In addition to the authority otherwise granted in this Act, the commission and the comptroller may adopt rules for the administration of this section as follows:(1)  the commission may adopt rules relating to:(A)  auditing or other verification of Breeders' Cup costs and amounts paid or set aside by political subdivisions and development organizations; and(B)  the disbursement of funds from the Breeders' Cup Developmental Account; and(2)  the comptroller may adopt rules relating to:(A)  procedures and requirements for transmitting or otherwise delivering to the treasury the money set aside under this section; and(B)  depositing funds into the Breeders' Cup Developmental Account.(g)  The commission may adopt rules to facilitate the conduct of the Breeders' Cup races, including the adoption of rules or waiver of existing rules relating to the overall conduct of racing during the Breeders' Cup races in order to assure the integrity of the races, licensing for all participants, special stabling and training requirements for foreign horses, and commingling of pari-mutuel pools.(h)  The provisions of this section prevail over any conflicting provisions of this Act.|Acts 1986, 69th Leg., 2nd C.S., ch. 19, Sec. 1, eff.
