As reported by the QC Times: "Isle of Capri Casinos will expand its gaming
offerings in southeast Florida with a $140 million slots parlor at Pompano
Park Harness Track. "The project will add 1,500 slot machines to the Pompano
Park Harness Track, the only track in the Isle of Capri Casinos' family. The
creation of a Racino - combination racetrack/casino - also includes four
restaurants on the 331-acre property, which already houses a poker room.
Isle of Capri acquired the track in 1995.

"...At the heart of the Racino will be a multi-story bar offering
high-action imagery and audio on multiple video displays. The project, which
is expected to be completed in the next seven to nine months, also will
include new racetrack amenities such as a high-tech Winner's Circle..."

"The Isle of Capri was one of four pari-mutuels in Broward County authorized
to add slot machines after Gov. Jeb Bush signed the slot machine bill into
law in January..."
