FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CALIFORNIA JOCKEY CLUB EAGER TO PROCEED WITH ANNUAL STOCKHOLDERS MEETING
SAN MATEO, CALIF. -- AUGUST 22, 1996 -- The California Jockey Club
(AMEX:CJ) said that, in a ruling today, the California Superior Court for the
County of San Mateo reaffirmed the August 30, 1996 date of the California
Jockey Club's (CJC) annual stockholders meeting.
Kjell H. Qvale, chairman of CJC's Board of Directors, said: "We had
hoped to avoid having our stockholders rushed to a decision on the important
issues before them and sought to hold the meeting in mid-September. Fortunately,
our initial discussions with our stockholders indicate their support for the
Board's plan to enhance stockholder value. We look forward to the meeting and
are eager to proceed."
