From the Associated Press:

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Track officials say that total wagering on Remington Park thoroughbred racing in 2010 rose by 48.3 percent from last year.

Scott Wells, the track's president and general manager, says almost $54.2 million was wagered on Remington Park races during the thoroughbred meet that ended Saturday. Track officials say the large increase is a result of higher interest from bettors receiving the track's export signal away from Oklahoma City.
