            CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for
          the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 (unaudited)
                     ($ in thousands, except per share data)


1.      Basis of Presentation

        The  accompanying   condensed   consolidated  financial  statements  are
        presented  in  accordance  with  the   requirements  of  Form  10-Q  and
        consequently do not include all of the disclosures  normally required by
        accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States or those
        normally made in Churchill Downs  Incorporated's  (the "Company") annual
        report on Form 10-K. The year end condensed  consolidated  balance sheet
        data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include
        all disclosures required by accounting  principles generally accepted in
        the United States. Accordingly, the reader of this Form 10-Q may wish to
        refer to the Company's  Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 1999
        for  further  information.   The  accompanying   condensed  consolidated
        financial   statements   have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  the
        registrant's  customary  accounting practices and have not been audited.
        Certain prior period financial  statement amounts have been reclassified
        to  conform  to the  current  period  presentation.  In the  opinion  of
        management,  all adjustments  necessary for a fair  presentation of this
        information  have  been  made and all such  adjustments  are of a normal
        recurring nature.

        Because of the  seasonal  nature of the  Company's  business  and recent
        acquisition  activity,  revenues and  operating  results for any interim
        quarter are not indicative of the revenues and operating results for the
        year  and  are  not   necessarily   comparable   with  results  for  the
        corresponding  period of the previous year. The  accompanying  condensed
        consolidated  financial  statements reflect a disproportionate  share of
        annual net earnings as the Company normally earns a substantial  portion
        of its net earnings in the second and third quarters of each year during
        which all our operations are open for some or all of this period and the
        Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks are run.

2.      Restricted Cash

        Restricted  cash  represents  refundable  deposits  and  amounts  due to
        horsemen for purses, stakes and awards.

3.      Long-Term Debt

        The Company has a $250  million  line of credit  under a revolving  loan
        facility  through a syndicate of banks to meet working capital and other
        short-term  requirements  and to provide funding for  acquisitions.  The
        interest  rate on the  borrowing  is  based  upon  LIBOR  plus 75 to 250
        additional  basis  points,   which  is  determined  by  certain  Company
        financial  ratios.  There was $154.6 million  outstanding on the line of
        credit at September 30, 2000,  compared to $178.0 million outstanding at
        December 31, 1999, and $183.0 million outstanding at September 30, 1999.
        The line of credit is secured by substantially  all of the assets of the
        Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, and matures in 2004.

3.      Long-Term Debt (cont'd)

        The Company has entered into  interest  rate swap  contracts  with major
        financial institutions, which have termination dates through March 2003.
        Under terms of these two  separate  contracts,  we receive a LIBOR based
        variable interest rate on notional amounts of $35.0 million each and pay
        a fixed  interest  rate of 7.015% and 7.30%,  which mature in March 2003
        and May 2002,  respectively.  The Company also entered  into an interest
        rate  swap  in  November 2000 in  which we  pay a fixed interest rate of
        6.40% on a notional  amount of $30.0 million, which matures  in November
        2001. The variable interest rate received on the contracts is determined
        based on LIBOR on the last day of each month, which  is  consistent with
        the  variable  rate  determination  on  the  underlying debt.

4.      Acquisitions and Other Transactions

        On September 8, 2000, three of the Company's  wholly owned  subsidiaries
        merged  with  Arlington   International   Racecourse,   Inc.,  Arlington
        Management Services,  Inc. and Turf Club of Illinois, Inc. (collectively
        referred to as "Arlington Park"). The Company issued 3.15 million shares
        of its common stock to  Duchossois  Industries,  Inc.  ("DII") and could
        issue up to an additional  1.25 million shares of common stock dependent
        upon the opening of the riverboat casino at Rosemont,  Illinois, and the
        amount of subsidies received by Arlington as a result thereof.  For this
        purpose, the purchase price is based upon the number of shares issued to
        DII multiplied by an average trading price of the Company's shares for a
        period  immediately  before and after the announcement of the mergers on
        June 23,  2000,  discounted  to reflect  restrictions  on the voting and
        transfer of such shares  imposed by the  Stockholder's  Agreement,  plus
        merger-related  costs.  The acquisition was accounted for by the Company
        under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly,  the financial
        position and results of operations of Arlington  Park have been included
        in the Company's  consolidated  financial  statements  since the date of
        acquisition.  The assets and liabilities of Arlington Park were recorded
        at their  estimated  fair  values  on the  acquisition  date  based on a
        preliminary appraisal.  The allocation of the purchase price may require
        adjustment in the Company's future financial statements based on a final
        determination of the fair value of assets acquired in the acquisition.

        On September 10, 1999, the Company  acquired the assets of the Hollywood
        Park racetrack and the Hollywood  Park Casino in Inglewood,  California,
        including  approximately  240 acres of land upon which the racetrack and
        casino  are  located,  for a  purchase  price  of  $140.0  million  plus
        approximately  $2.5 million in transaction costs. The Company leases the
        Hollywood Park Casino  facility to the seller under a 10-year lease with
        one 10-year renewal  option.  The lease provides for annual rent of $3.0
        million,  subject to adjustment  during the renewal  period.  The entire
        purchase  price of $142.5  million was allocated to the acquired  assets
        and liabilities  based on their fair values on the acquisition date. The
        acquisition  was accounted for by the Company as an asset  purchase and,
        accordingly,  the  financial  position  and  results  of  operations  of
        Hollywood   Park   racetrack   have  been   included  in  the  Company's
        consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.

        On July 20, 1999, the Company issued 2.3 million shares of the Company's
        common  stock at a price of $29 per  share.  The total  proceeds  net of
        offering  expenses were $62.1 million and were used for the repayment of
        bank borrowings.

4.      Acquisitions and Other Transactions (cont'd)

        On April 23, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding  stock of
        Calder Race Course,  Inc. and Tropical  Park,  Inc. from KE  Acquisition
        Corp.  for a  purchase  price of $86  million  cash plus a  closing  net
        working capital  adjustment of approximately  $2.9 million cash and $0.6
        million in transaction  costs. The purchase  included Calder Race Course
        in Miami and the licenses held by Calder Race Course,  Inc. and Tropical
        Park,  Inc. to conduct horse racing at Calder Race Course.  The purchase
        price, including additional costs, of $89.5 million was allocated to the
        acquired  assets  and  liabilities  based on their  fair  values  on the
        acquisition  date with the excess of $49.4  million  being  recorded  as
        goodwill,  which is being  amortized over 40 years.  The acquisition was
        accounted  for by the Company  under the purchase  method of  accounting
        and,  accordingly,  the financial  position and results of operations of
        Calder Race Course,  Inc. and Tropical Park,  Inc. have been included in
        the  Company's  consolidated  financial  statements  since  the  date of
        acquisition.

        issuance  and the April 23, 1999  acquisition  of Calder Race Course all

        Options  to  purchase  approximately  74 and 69 shares  for the  periods
        ending September 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively,  were not included in
        the computation of earnings per common share- assuming  dilution because
        the options'  exercise prices were greater than the average market price
        of the common shares.

6.      Segment Information

        The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131  "Disclosures  about Segments of an
        Enterprise and Related  Information." The Company has determined that it
        currently operates in the following seven segments:  (1) Churchill Downs
        racetrack and the Louisville  Sports Spectrum  simulcast  facility,  (2)
        Hollywood Park racetrack and its on-site simulcast facility,  (3) Calder
        Race Course,  (4) Arlington  Park and its off-track  betting  facilities
        ("OTBs"),  (5) Ellis Park racetrack and its on-site simulcast  facility,
        (6) Hoosier Park  racetrack and its on-site  simulcast  facility and the
        other three Indiana OTBs, and (7) other investments,  including Charlson
        Broadcast  Technologies  LLC ("CBT")  and the  Company's  other  various
        equity  interests,  which are not  material.  Eliminations  include  the
        elimination of management fees and other intersegment transactions. As a
        result of a  reorganization  for internal  reporting  during  2000,  the
        Company's segment disclosures are presented on a new basis to correspond
        with internal  reporting for corporate  revenues and expenses which, for
        the nine and three months  ended  September  30, 1999 and 2000,  are now
        reported separate of Churchill Downs racetrack revenues and expenses.

        Most  of the  Company's  revenues  are  generated  from  commissions  on
        pari-mutuel   wagering  at  the  Company's  racetracks  and  OTBs,  plus
        simulcast  fees,   Indiana   riverboat   admissions   subsidy   revenue,
        admissions,  concessions revenue, sponsorship revenues, licensing rights
        and broadcast fees, lease income and other sources.

        The accounting  policies of the segments are the same as those described
        in the "Summary of  Significant  Accounting  Policies" in the  Company's
        annual  report to  shareholders  for the year ended  December  31, 1999.
        Earnings  before   interest,   taxes,   depreciation   and  amortization
        ("EBITDA")  should  not be  considered  as an  alternative  to,  or more
        meaningful than, net income (as determined in accordance with accounting
        principles generally accepted in the United States), as a measure of our
        operating  results  or cash  flows (as  determined  in  accordance  with
        accounting  principles  generally accepted in the United States) or as a
        measure of our liquidity.

    revenues and expenses for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1999

7.      Pending Transactions

        The Company previously entered into a definitive agreement with Centaur,
        Inc. which was subsequently assigned to Centaur Racing, LLC ("Centaur"),
        to sell a 26% interest in Hoosier Park, LP ("HPLP") for a purchase price
        of $8.5  million.  HPLP is an  Indiana  limited  partnership  that  owns
        Hoosier Park racetrack and related OTBs. The Company was to retain a 51%
        interest in HPLP and continue to manage its  day-to-day  operations.  On
        September 12, 2000, the Company announced that approval for the sale had
        been  denied as a result of action  taken by the  Indiana  Horse  Racing
        Commission  ("IHRC")  against  Centaur,  and as a result  the  ownership
        structure has not changed.  Centaur's  performance  under the definitive
        agreement  was  guaranteed  by an  irrevocable  Letter  of Credit in the
        amount of $2.5 million,  which  management expects to be available to us
        at  the  end  of  Centaur's administrative  appeals process,  during the
        fourth quarter of 2000.

       ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

Information  set  forth  in  this  discussion  and  analysis   contains  various
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934. The Private
Securities  Litigation  Reform Act of 1995 ( the "Act")  provides  certain "safe
harbor"  provisions  for   forward-looking   statements.   All   forward-looking
statements  made in this Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q are made pursuant to the
Act.  These  statements  represent  our judgment  concerning  the future and are
subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual operating results
and financial  condition to differ  materially.  Forward-looking  statements are
typically  identified  by the use of  terms  such as  "may,"  "will,"  "expect,"
"anticipate,"  "estimate,"  and similar  words,  although  some  forward-looking
statements are expressed differently.  Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in such forward-  looking  statements are  reasonable,  we can give no
assurance that such  expectations  will prove to be correct.  Important  factors
that could  cause  actual  results to differ  materially  from our  expectations
include: the financial performance of Arlington Park; litigation surrounding the
Rosemont,  Illinois,  riverboat casino;  market reaction to our merger agreement
with Arlington Park;  changes in Illinois law that impact revenues of the racing
operations in Illinois;  the impact of gaming competition  (including  lotteries
and  riverboat,  cruise  ship and  land-based  casinos)  and  other  sports  and
entertainment options in those markets in which we operate; a substantial change
in law or regulations affecting our pari-mutuel activities; a substantial change
in  allocation of live racing days; a decrease in riverboat  admissions  subsidy
revenue from our Indiana operations;  the impact of an additional racetrack near
our Indiana  operations;  our continued  ability to effectively  compete for the
country's top horses and trainers  necessary to field high-quality horse racing;
our continued ability to grow our share of the interstate  simulcast market; the
impact of interest  rate  fluctuations;  our ability to execute our  acquisition
strategy and to complete or successfully operate planned expansion projects; our
ability to adequately integrate acquired businesses; the loss of our totalisator
companies  or  their   inability   to  keep  their   technology   current;   our
accountability for environmental  contamination;  the loss of key personnel; and
the volatility of our stock price.

Overview

We conduct pari-mutuel  wagering on live Thoroughbred,  Standardbred and Quarter
Horse horse racing and simulcast signals of races. Additionally, we offer racing
services  through  our  other  interests.  Our  primary  source  of  revenue  is
commissions on  pari-mutuel  wagering at  our  racetracks  and off-track betting
facilities  ("OTBs"). Other sources  of revenue include simulcast fees,  Indiana
riverboat   admissions   subsidy   revenue,  admissions,  concessions   revenue,
sponsorship  revenues,  licensing  rights  and  broadcast fees, lease income and
other sources.

We are the majority  owner and operator of Hoosier Park at Anderson in Anderson,
Indiana,  which  conducts  Thoroughbred,  Quarter Horse and  Standardbred  horse
racing ("Hoosier Park").  Hoosier Park is owned by Hoosier Park, LP ("HPLP"), an
Indiana limited  partnership.  We previously entered into a definitive agreement
with Centaur,  Inc.,  which was  subsequently  assigned to Centaur  Racing,  LLC
("Centaur"),  to  sell a 26%  interest  in HPLP  for a  purchase  price  of $8.5
million.  We were to retain a 51%  interest  in HPLP and  continue to manage its
day-to-day operations. On September 12, 2000, we announced that approval for the
sale had been  denied as a result of action  taken by the Indiana  Horse  Racing
Commission ("IHRC") against Centaur, and as a result the ownership structure has
not changed. Centaur's performance under the definitive agreement was guaranteed
by an irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of $2.5 million, which

       ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

management expects to be available to us at the end of Centaur's  administrative
appeals process, during the fourth quarter of 2000.

Because of the seasonal nature of our business and recent acquisition  activity,
revenues and operating results for any interim quarter are likely not indicative
of the  revenues  and  operating  results  for the year and are not  necessarily
comparable  with results for the  corresponding  period of the previous year. We
normally earn a substantial  portion of our net earnings in the second and third
quarters of each year during which all our  operations  are open for some or all
of this period and the Kentucky Derby and the Kentucky Oaks are run.

In Kentucky, two pieces of legislation significant to our operations were passed
in the 2000  session of the  Kentucky  General  Assembly.  First,  an excise tax
credit for racetracks was included in the 2000-2002  Kentucky state budget.  The
measure results in an ultimate credit of nearly $1.4 million in new revenue, and
is earmarked for horsemen's  incentives and necessary  capital  improvements  at
Churchill Downs racetrack over the next two years.

The Kentucky  General  Assembly also enacted  legislation  that  eliminates  the
excise tax on Breeders' Cup Championship Day wagering at any Kentucky track that
hosts the event.  This  legislation  is aimed at attracting the Breeders' Cup to
Kentucky,  and Churchill Downs, on a more frequent basis.  On-track wagering for
the  2000  Breeders'  Cup Day at  Churchill  Downs  totaled  $13.6  million  and
generated  excise taxes of approximately  $475,000.  This tax exemption will not
become  effective until January 1, 2001, and therefore did not apply to the 2000
Breeders' Cup at Churchill  Downs.  The exemption will continue if the Breeders'
Cup returns to Kentucky within three years of the previously held event.

In 1999, the state of Illinois enacted legislation that provides for pari-mutuel
tax  relief  and  related  tax  credits  for  Illinois  racetracks,  as  well as
legislation  providing  for  subsidies  to  Illinois  horse  racing  tracks from
revenues  generated by the relocation of a license to operate a riverboat casino
gaming  facility.  Arlington's  share of subsidies  from the  proposed  Rosemont
casino under the 1999 legislation is expected to range from $4.6 million to $8.0
million annually,  based on publicly available sources.  The 1999 legislation is
currently the subject of a lawsuit pending in Cook County, Illinois state court.

Net Revenues

Net revenues  during the nine months ended  September 30, 2000  increased  $96.2
million (58%) from $164.9 million in 1999 to $261.1  million in 2000.  Churchill
Downs  racetrack  revenues  increased  $7.0 million (10%)  primarily due to $4.7
million of increased  pari-mutuel  wagering as a result of having an  additional
week of live  racing,  which was  transferred  from  Ellis  Park.  In  addition,
Churchill  Downs  racetrack had increases in  pari-mutuel  wagering,  as well as
increases in corporate sponsor event ticket prices, admissions

and seat revenue and  concessions  revenue as a result of record  attendance  on
Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby days.  Arlington Park  contributed $9.2 million
to the first nine months of 2000 net revenues, Hollywood Park revenues increased
$73.9 million to $75.0 million in 2000 from $1.1 million in 1999 and Calder Race
Course  revenues  increased  $3.5  million  to $42.6  million in 2000 from $39.1
million in 1999 due to the timing of the 1999  acquisitions.  The Arlington Park
merger was completed in the third quarter of 2000,  Hollywood  Park was acquired
in the third  quarter of 1999 and Calder Race Course was  acquired in the second
quarter of 1999.  The  remaining  increase was  primarily the result of the $5.8
million  management  contract that was in effect from July 1 through the closing
of the Arlington Park merger on September 8 offset by a reduction in revenues at
Ellis Park  related to the  reduction  from 61 to 41 days of live racing  during
2000.

Operating Expenses

Operating  expenses increased $71.5 million (55%) from $129.5 million in 1999 to
$201.0 million in 2000 primarily as a result of Arlington  Park's 2000 operating
expenses of $6.3 million, and increases in Hollywood Park and Calder Race Course
operating  expenses of $59.9 million and $5.2 million,  respectively,  primarily
due to the timing of the acquisitions.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $24.7 million from $35.4 million in 1999 to $60.1 million
in  2000.  The  increase  in  gross  profit  was  primarily  the  result  of the
acquisition  of Hollywood  Park, the merger with Arlington Park and the increase
in gross profit for Churchill  Downs  racetrack due to an increase in the number
of live race days and record  attendance  on Kentucky  Oaks and  Kentucky  Derby
days. The Arlington Park management fee also  contributed to the increased gross
profit for 2000.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling,  general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses increased by $8.7 million
(75%) from $11.7  million in 1999 to $20.4  million in 2000.  SG&A  expenses  at
Churchill  Downs  corporate  increased  $2.6  million  (38%)  due  primarily  to
increased corporate staffing and compensation  expenses reflecting the Company's
strengthened  corporate  services to meet the needs of new business  units.  The
1999 acquisitions of Calder Race Course and Hollywood Park resulted in increases
of $1.3 million and $3.1 million,  respectively. In addition, Arlington Park had
expenses of $0.9 million during 2000.

Other Income and Expense

Interest  expense  increased  $7.2  million  from $4.2  million in 1999 to $11.4
million  in 2000  primarily  as a  result  of  borrowings  to  finance  the 1999
acquisitions of Calder Race Course and Hollywood Park.

Income Tax Provision

The  increase in the income tax  provision  of $3.2  million for the nine months
ended  September  30, 2000 as compared to  September  30, 1999 is a result of an
increase in pre-tax earnings.

Three  Months  Ended  September 30, 2000  Compared  to  Three  Months  Ended

Net Revenues

Net revenues  during the three months ended  September 30, 2000 increased  $40.4
million  (64%) from $63.1 million in 1999 to $103.5  million in 2000.  Churchill
Downs  racetrack  revenues  increased  $3.4 million (62%) due to $3.4 million of
increased  pari-mutuel wagering as a result of having an additional week of live
racing,  which  transferred from Ellis Park.  Hollywood Park revenues  increased
$23.0 million to $24.1 million in 2000 from $1.1 million in 1999. Arlington Park
contributed net revenues of $9.2 million to the three months ended September 30,
2000. The remaining increase,  as reflected in other investments,  was primarily
the result of the $5.8  million  management  contract  offset by a reduction  in
revenues  at Ellis  Park  related  to the  reduction  from 61 to 41 days of live
racing during the third quarter.

Operating Expenses

Operating  expenses  increased $25.6 million (47%) from $54.7 million in 1999 to
$80.3 million in 2000.  This is primarily  attributable  to the  Hollywood  Park
operating  expenses  increasing $18.5 million,  and Arlington Park incurred 2000
operating expenses of $6.3 million.

Gross Profit

Gross profit  increased $14.8 million from $8.4 million in 1999 to $23.2 million
in  2000.  The  increase  in  gross  profit  was  primarily  the  result  of the
acquisition of Hollywood Park and the merger with  Arlington Park. The Arlington
Park  management  fee also  contributed  to the increased  gross profits for the
three months ended September 30, 2000.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses  increased by $2.6 million (55%) from $4.8 million in 1999 to $7.4
million in 2000.  SG&A  expenses at Churchill  Downs  corporate  increased  $0.4
million (17%) due  primarily to increased  corporate  staffing and  compensation
expenses  reflecting the Company's  strengthened  corporate services to meet the
needs of new business  units.  Hollywood  Park expenses  increased  $0.9 million
primarily due to the timing of the  acquisition.  The merger with Arlington Park
added $ 0.9 million.

Other Income and Expense

Interest  expense  increased  $1.7  million  from $2.0  million  in 1999 to $3.7
million  in 2000  primarily  as a  result  of  borrowings  to  finance  the 1999
acquisition of Hollywood Park.

Income Tax Provision

Our income tax  provision  increased  by $4.1 million for the three months ended
September  30,  2000,  as  compared to  September  30,  1999,  as a result of an
increase in pre-tax earnings of $10.3 million.

Significant Changes in the Balance Sheet September 30, 2000 to December 31, 1999
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Restricted  cash  increased  $9.3  million  due to the current  period  separate
classification of restricted assets.

Accounts  receivable  increased  $10.8 million  primarily due to the merger with
Arlington Park.

Net plant and equipment  increased  $64.7  million  primarily as a result of the
merger with Arlington  Park.  Additional  increases were due to routine  capital
spending at our operating units offset by  depreciation  expense and the sale of
the Kentucky Horse Center assets during the second quarter of 2000.

Accounts payable increased $19.8 million at September 30, 2000, primarily due to
the merger with  Arlington  Park.  In addition,  there were  increases in purses
payable and other  expenses  related to simulcast  wagering for Churchill  Downs
racetrack and Hoosier Park.

Accrued expenses  increased $14.2 million primarily as a result of the Arlington
Park merger.

Dividends  payable  decreased  $4.9  million at September  30, 2000,  due to the
payment of dividends of $4.9 million (declared in 1999) in first quarter 2000.

Deferred revenue decreased $5.5 million at September 30, 2000,  primarily due to
the significant  amount of admission and seat revenue that was received prior to
December 31, 1999  recognized  as income in May 2000 for the Kentucky  Derby and
Kentucky Oaks race days.

The long-term  debt decrease of $23.7 million was the result of the  application
of current cash flow to reduce  borrowings  under our bank line of credit during
2000.

Common stock  increased by $51.5  million  primarily due to the issuance of 3.15
million shares of common stock to complete the merger with Arlington Park during
the third quarter of 2000.

Accounts  receivable  increased  $20.3 million at September 30, 2000. The merger
with Arlington Park increased accounts receivable by $15.8 million. In addition,
the  timing  of the  1999  acquisition  of  Hollywood  Park  increased  accounts
receivable by $3.4 million.

Net plant and equipment  increased  $64.0  million  primarily as a result of the
merger with Arlington  Park.  Additional  increases were due to routine  capital
spending at our operating units offset by  depreciation  expense and the sale of
the Kentucky Horse Center assets during the second quarter of 2000.

The accounts  payable  increase of $14.9 million was primarily due to the merger
with Arlington Park which represents $12.3 million of the increase.

Accrued  expenses  increased  $19.9 million  primarily due to the Arlington Park
merger.

The  long-term  debt  net  decrease  of  $28.9  million  was the  result  of the
application  of current  cash flow to reduce  borrowings  under our bank line of
credit.

Common stock  increased by $51.5  million  primarily due to the issuance of 3.15
million shares of common stock to complete the merger with Arlington Park during
the third quarter of 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

The change in working capital between September 30, 2000 and 1999 is a result of
the Arlington  merger.  Cash flows  provided by operations  were $20.8 and $31.3
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
increase in depreciation  and amortization is primarily due to the timing of the
1999  acquisitions of Calder Race Course and Hollywood Park. The net decrease in
cash resulting from changes in operating  assets and liabilities was primarily a
result of current  period  separate  classification  of restricted  assets which
represent refundable deposits and amounts due to horseman for purses, stakes and
awards.  In addition,  the accounts  payable  decrease was  primarily due to the
timing of the Arlington merger.  Management  believes cash flows from operations
and  available  borrowings  during  2000  will be  sufficient  to fund  our cash
requirements   for  the  year,   including   capital   improvements  and  future
acquisitions.

Cash flows used in investing  activities  were $11.8 million and $238.2  million
for the nine months ended  September  30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.  We used
$16.8 million during 2000 for capital spending at our facilities  including $3.0
million for  completion of the  expansion of Churchill  Downs' main entrance and
corporate offices. Cash used for 1999 business acquisitions  consisted of $142.5
million for the  acquisition of Hollywood  Park during the third quarter,  $82.4
million net of cash  acquired for the  acquisition  of Calder Race Course during
the second quarter and $2.9 million net of cash acquired for the  acquisition of
Charlson Broadcast Technologies, LLC during the first quarter.

Cash flows (used in) provided by financing  activities  were $(26.7) million and
$228.5  million  for  the  nine  months  ended  September  30,  2000  and  1999,
respectively. We borrowed $66.7 million and repaid $91.1

million on our line of credit during 2000. Cash provided by financing activities
in 1999 was used to finance the aforementioned acquisitions.

We have a $250 million line of credit under a revolving loan facility,  of which
$154.6  million was  outstanding  at September 30, 2000.  This line of credit is
secured by  substantially  all of our assets and  matures in 2004.  This  credit
facility is intended to meet working capital and other  short-term  requirements
and to provide funding for future acquisitions.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
------------------------------------------

In June 1998,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging  Activities (SFAS 133), which establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts  (collectively referred to as
derivatives)  and for hedging  activities.  SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137 and
SFAS 138,  is  effective  for the  Company's  year  ending  December  31,  2001.
Management  of the  Company is  currently  analyzing  the impact of SFAS 133 but
anticipates that the adoption of SFAS 133 will not have a material effect on the
Company's results of operations or financial position.

On December 3, 1999, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
issued Staff  Accounting  Bulletin  No. 101 (SAB 101),  Revenue  Recognition  in
Financial Statements.  SAB 101 summarizes some of the staff's interpretations of
the  application  of  generally  accepted   accounting   principles  to  revenue
recognition. The staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101B (SAB
101B) which delays the application of the accounting and disclosure requirements
to no later than the fourth quarter of the fiscal year beginning  after December
15, 1999. Management of the Company is currently analyzing the impact of SAB 101
and plans to adopt the  accounting  and  disclosure  requirements  in the fourth
quarter of 2000.  Management  does not  anticipate  the adoption of SAB 101 will
have a material  effect on the  Company's  results of  operations  or  financial
position.

Pending Transactions
--------------------

We  previously  entered into a definitive  agreement  with Centaur to sell a 26%
interest in HPLP for a purchase  price of $8.5 million.  We were to retain a 51%
interest in HPLP and continue to manage its day- to-day operations. On September
12, 2000, we announced that approval for the sale had been denied as a result of
action  taken  by the  IHRC  against  Centaur,  and as a  result  the  ownership
structure has not changed.  Centaur's performance under the definitive agreement
was guaranteed by an irrevocable Letter of Credit in the amount of $2.5 million,
which  management  expects  to  be  available to us  at  the  end  of  Centaur's
administrative  appeals process, during the fourth quarter of 2000.

ITEM 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

               At September 30, 2000, we had $154.6 million of debt  outstanding
               under our revolving loan facility,  which bears interest at LIBOR
               based variable  rates.  We are exposed to market risk on variable
               rate debt due to  potential  adverse  changes in the LIBOR  rate.
               Assuming the  outstanding  balance on the revolving loan facility
               remains  constant,  a one percentage  point increase in the LIBOR
               rate would reduce annual pre-tax  earnings and cash flows by $1.5
               million.

               In order to mitigate a portion of the market risk associated with
               our variable  rate debt,  we have entered into interest rate swap
               contracts with major financial institutions. Under terms of these
               separate  contracts  we receive a LIBOR based  variable  interest
               rate on notional  amounts of $35.0  million  each and pay a fixed
               interest rate of 7.015% and 7.30%, which mature in March 2003 and
               May 2002, respectively. Assuming the September 30, 2000, notional
               amounts under the interest rate swap contracts remain constant, a
               one  percentage  point  increase in the LIBOR rate would increase
               annual   pre-tax   earnings  and  cash  flows  by  $0.7  million.


               In November 2000, we entered into an interest rate  swap in which
               we  pay  a fixed  interest rate of 6.40% on a  notional amount of
               $30.0 million,  which  matures in November 2001. Management plans
               to engage in further interest rate  swap agreements in the future
               to reduce our interest rate exposure.

               Management Acquisition Corp. and T. Club  Acquisition Corp., each
               a  direct  or indirect  wholly  owned  subsidiary of  CDI,  being
               collectively  referred  to  as  the  "CDI  Companies"), Arlington

               merger  of  the  CDI  Companies  with  and  into   the  Arlington
               Companies,  with  the  Arlington  Companies  being  the surviving
               corporations of the mergers (the "Mergers") and becoming  wholly-
               owned  subsidiaries  of  CDI.  In  the  Mergers, DII  received an
               aggregate of 3,150,000 shares of CDI's common stock, no par value
               ("CDI  Common  Stock"),  and  has  the  right  to  receive  up to
               1,250,000  additional  shares of CDI Common Stock, as provided in
               the Merger Agreement.  The  purchase  price was determined by CDI
               based  upon  its analysis of the financial performance and assets
               of the Arlington Companies.

               In issuing the shares in the Merger,  CDI relied on the exemption
               from   registration   afforded  by  Rule  506  of   Regulation  D
               promulgated  pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, based on the
               issuance of shares meeting the requirements of Rule 506.
