Abstract

Thoroughbred incentive programs are subsidy policies designed to promote regional race horse breeding and ownership. At issue, is an ongoing debate concerning the effectiveness of alternative policies. Empirical results indicate the programs have a positive economic affect, but gains in efficiency can be obtained by reallocating funds to open purses.
