Report of Independent Accountants
---------------------------------
To the Stockholder of Waterford Gaming Finance Corp.:
We have reviewed the condensed balance sheet of Waterford Gaming Finance Corp.
("the Company") as of September 30, 1998, and the related condensed statements
of operations and retained earnings (deficit) for the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, and the related condensed statements
of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial
information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial
data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is
the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a
whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the condensed financial statements referred to above for them to be
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the balance sheet as of December 31, 1997, and the related
statements of operations and retained earnings (deficit) and cash flows for the
year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 6, 1998,
we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our
opinion, the information set forth in the condensed balance sheet as of December
31, 1997, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") File No. 333-17795-01 on

the results of operations and retained earnings (deficit) for the three months
and nine months ended September 30, 1998, and cash flows for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998. Results of operations for the period are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Waterford Gaming, L.L.C. ("Gaming").
Effective May 15, 1997 the Company functioned as co-issuer with its parent,
Gaming, to issue 12-3/4% senior notes payable (the "Senior Notes").
