          CALIFORNIA JOCKEY CLUB SAYS DISSIDENTS RELEASE IS MISLEADING


     SAN MATEO, CA -- AUGUST 29, 1996 -- The California Jockey Club's nominees
issued the following statement in response to a news release issued today by a
dissident stockholder group seeking to unseat CJC's current Board of Directors:

          "The dissident group claims in their release that they have allegedly
          found 'serious departures from the truth in a document filed by the 
          . . . board of the California Jockey Club and (are) demanding
          immediate correction of the misrepresentations.' However, the
          dissidents don't state what the alleged misrepresentations are. Thus,
          we have nothing to which we can respond. This is consistent with their
          so-called plan, which provides no specifics, either.
