PART I
Item 1. Business.
(a) Mid-State Raceway, Inc., known as Vernon Downs in Vernon, New York, is
licensed under and subject to the regulations of the Pari-Mutuel Revenue Law and
supervision of the New York Racing and Wagering Board to conduct harness racing
at its track and to simulcast racing from other tracks.
(b) The company is engaged in one business segment.
(c) Generally, Mid-State Raceway is not in competition with other harness racing
tracks in New York State for patrons. A thoroughbred race track, which conducts
a day-time racing meet is located about 110 miles from Vernon, New York, and
competes to some extent for the Vernon Downs customers primarily on weekend
dates.
Increased off-track wagering on thoroughbred and harness racing due to a live
television signal being sent into OTB shops in Central New York, the New York
State Lottery and the Oneida Indian Nation's Turning Stone Casino, approximately
7 miles away in Verona, New York, were the principal causes to affect Vernon's
on-track daily averages of handle and attendance.
Competition for good horses with the resultant attractive racing programs, has
increased in recent years, particularly from the metropolitan New York - New
Jersey area. However, entries in Vernon Downs' early closing and stake events
continue at prior years' levels in both the number and quality of horses.
The Company employed 222 persons during the fiscal year.
Item 2. Properties
The Racing Plant is located in Vernon, Oneida County, New York. Since the
opening of the plant and related facilities in 1953, the Company has maintained
a policy of continuously improving and modernizing its facilities. In the period
ended December 31, 1995, $96,000 was expended for equipment and renovations to
the plant.
The plant can accommodate approximately 14,000 patrons, which includes seating
for 2,000 in the Grandstand and 1,700 in the Clubhouse. There are parking
facilities for approximately 5,900 automobiles.
The track is a 3/4 mile oval stone dust track with a 1/4 mile chute. The track
is illuminated by a metal-halide and quartz lighting system. Most races are for
a distance of one mile. The stables accommodate approximately 1,000 horses and
are located adjacent to three exercise tracks and the main track.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
The Company is a defendant in two actions claiming damages in connection with
wrongful death and injury claims. No estimate can yet be made of the potential
for liability or damages or the likely outcome of the litigation.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders.
There are no matters that were submitted during the quarter requiring a vote of
securities holders, therefore, this item is not applicable.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis
Results of Operations
Nine Months Ended December 31, 1995 as Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31,
1995
During the nine month period ended December 31, 1995, operating revenues
decreased by $519,292, compared with the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995. The
reduced operating revenues were the effect of the Company's change in year end,
resulting in a nine month transitional period. A portion of the decrease is due
to 33 less live racing days during the transitional period, offset by
significant increases in revenues, due to full-card simulcasting of both in
state and out of state harness and thoroughbred racing, over the entire
transitional period. Net corporate sponsorship of racing events decreased
$193,820 from the previous racing season, and are expected to diminish
significantly in the 1996 season.
The Comfort Suites hotel, located on the Raceway's property continues to benefit
the Company's operations. The hotel's mutuel operation provided nearly $9.4
million in total wagers during the transitional period, representing one third
of the Company's gross handle.
In addition to the Comfort Suites contribution to the Company's handle and
attendance, the hotel has presented additional opportunities for reducing
expenses, as the simulcasting operation is conducted exclusively in the hotel
lounge on Monday and Tuesday, eliminating the expense associated with opening
the Club House on these days.
Operating expenses decreased by $962,506 compared to the fiscal year ended March
31, 1995. The principal causes for the decrease were the reduction 33 days of
racing coupled with the shorter transitional period which eliminated three
months of fixed expenses.
The Omnibus Racing bill, originally passed in July, 1994, continues to generate
positive increases in the Company's simulcast operations. The bill, which lifted
several of the restrictions on receiving simulcast race signals and wagering on
out of state races, has allowed Vernon Downs to offer a variety of harness and
thoroughbred races from around the country. Over thirty different tracks were
received during the period ended December 31, 1995.
The Company continues to concentrate on the reduction of operating expenses.
Efforts such as the elimination of live race dates which have historically
proven to be unprofitable and the closing of the track's Grandstand during the
fall and winter, significantly reduced the related expenses. Negotiations with
collective bargaining units have produced concessions to both payroll and other
operational expenses.

LIVE RACING DAYS 122 139 (17)
Year Ended March 31, 1995 as Compared to Year Ended March 31, 1994
During fiscal 1995, operating revenues increased by $455,987. A portion of the
increase is due to an additional 18 racing days during the year, while the
majority of the increase in revenues were substantially due to the addition of
wagering on full-card simulcasting of both in state and out of state harness
racing, in conjunction with the Company's live harness racing, beginning in
July.
Operating expenses increased by $457,462 from on-track harness racing and
$85,752 from simulcasting races as a guest track, for a total increase of
$543,214. The principal cause for these increases was the additional 18 days of
racing.
Several new developments were undertaken during the middle to later part of the
racing season which have had a positive impact on operations. Among them are New
York State's passing of the "Omnibus" Racing bill in July, 1994 which produced
two direct benefits for the Company. The bill reduced the New York State
pari-mutuel tax rate, effective September 1, 1994, saving the Company
approximately $86,000 during the seven month period ending March 31, 1995. The
bill also allows for full card out of state simulcasting, thus providing
additional products on which the track's patrons may wager.
In an effort to increase attendance and handle, the Company's marketing plan has
been changed to focus on a personalized, direct mail approach. The efforts thus
far have yielded positive results.
The Comfort Suites at Vernon Downs, a 175 room hotel located on the Company's
property, has been a benefit to operations. Since it's opening in October, 1994,
the facility has provided a boost to on track handle and attendance through both
wagering directly at the hotel and in rooms, as well as providing the track with
an additional source for patrons.

<PAGE>
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis (Continued)
The operating results of fiscal 1995 have forced management to continue to focus
on reduction of operating expenses. The race dates for the 1995 racing season
have been rearranged to eliminate certain dates which have historically proven
to be unprofitable and replaced them with weekend racing in the early fall and
late winter. The grandstand was closed during the fall of 1994 and the winter of
1995, significantly reducing the related expenses. The opening of the grandstand
in only the "Summer Season" is expected to continue to provide similar benefits
in the future.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Anticipated cash flows from operations, and proceeds from investing activities
are expected to provide adequate funds to support future financing activities.
The Company continues to maintain a favorable working capital position with a
current ratio in excess of two to one.

MID-STATE RACEWAY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF OPERATIONS:
Mid-State Raceway, Inc. (the "Company"), known as Vernon Downs,
operates a harness racing track in Vernon, New York. The
Company is licensed by the New York Racing and Wagering Board
to conduct harness racing at its track and to simulcast racing
from other tracks.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR:
In 1995 the Company changed its fiscal year end to December 31 from
March 31. Consequently, the statements of operations, changes in
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the period ended
December 31, 1995 present the activities for nine months.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES:
Effective April 1, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. As required by this
pronouncement, the Company has classified its investments in
securities as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale.
Held-to-maturity securities are those for which the Company has
the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, and are
reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and
accretion of discounts. Securities not classified as
held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale and
reported at fair value, with net unrealized gains and losses
reflected as a separate component of shareholders' equity, net
of the applicable income tax effect. None of the Company's
investment securities have been classified as trading
securities. The effect of this change in accounting as of
April 1, 1994 was to decrease investment securities by $5,780
and shareholders' equity by $3,468, net of deferred taxes of
$2,312.
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT:
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated
depreciation computed by the straight-line and accelerated
methods.
The estimated useful life of the various classes of assets on
which current provisions were based are as follows:
Land improvements 5 to 20 years
Buildings and improvements 10 to 40 years
Other structures 15 to 31 1/2 years
Equipmment 3 to 20 years

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
CONTINUED
RETIREMENT PLANS:
The Company sponsors a number of retirement plans that cover
substantially all employees. One group of union employees are
covered under an industry-wide union pension plan. The other
group of union employees are covered under a defined
contribution individual account retirement severance plan which
is funded currently. The total contribution under both plans
for the nine months ended December31, 1995 and the years ended
March 31, 1995 and 1994 amount to $44,080, $66,726, and $89,298,
respectively.
The remaining employees are covered by a defined contribution
currently funded individual account retirement plan or an
unfunded deferred compensation plan. The total expense charged
to operations for these plans amounted to $51,925, $125,325,
and $63,527 for the nine months ended December 31, 1995 and the
years ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The deferred
compensation plan's projected benefit obligation approximates
the accrued liability.
LOSS PER SHARE:
Loss per share of common stock has been calculated based on the
weighted average shares outstanding during each year. The
weighted average number of common shares outstanding was
250,386 during the nine months ended December 31, 1995 and the
years ended March 31, 1995 and 1994.
INCOME TAXES:
During fiscal 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Accordingly, the Company changed its method of accounting for
income taxes from the deferred method used in prior years to
the method prescribed by SFAS No.109. Under SFAS No.109,
deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences
in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets
and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each
year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates
applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected
to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established
when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount
expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable
for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax
assets and liabilities.
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenue for commissions from wagering,
corporate sponsors, admissions, and commissions for capital
improvements when the related racing event is run. Investment
income is recognized on the accrual basis.

Note 3. Income Taxes
In fiscal year 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under
the provisions of SFAS No. 109, the Company elected not to restate
prior years and has determined that the cumulative effect was a
reduction in previously provided deferred tax assets of $100,000.
The effect of this change was not material to fiscal 1994.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
On April 17, 1996, Coopers & Lybrand, LLP, the firm of accountants previously
engaged to audit Registrant's financial statements, resigned. The resignation
was unilateral and was first communicated orally without explanation. The
resignation was confirmed in a letter of the same date received by facsimile and
regular mail. The resignation was not requested or prompted by Registrant.
The day after the resignation, it was publicly announced that Richard C.
Breeden, a partner with the firm of Coopers & Lybrand, LLP, was a candidate for
appointment as trustee in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding involving Bennett
Funding Group, Inc. and two related companies, all owned by Patrick Bennett and
members of his family. Patrick Bennett was, at the time, owner with his wife of
54 percent of the outstanding common stock of Registrant.
Coopers & Lybrand, LLP's reports on Registrant's financial statements for the
past two years contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were
they qualified or modified for any reason.
During Registrant's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim
period up to the date of the resignation there were no disagreements with
Coopers & Lybrand of the character described in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) nor any
reportable events of the character described in paragraph (a)(i)(v) of
Regulation ss.229.304, Item 304, except as follows: Coopers & Lybrand, LLP
advised Registrant of the need to expand significantly the scope of its audit
for the reason discussed in Item 5 of Form 8-K dated April 8, 1996, and due to
Coopers & Lybrand, LLP's resignation, such expanded work was not completed.
The Board of Directors ratified Urbach Kahn & Werlin PC, Certified Public
Accountants as independent auditors for the period ended December 31, 1995 at
the Board of Directors meeting on May 23, 1996, subject to the receipt of a
letter of engagement. On May 29, 1996 such letter of engagement was received and
the services of Urbach Kahn & Werlin PC, Certified Public Accountants were
retained.
