NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

     The information furnished reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion
     of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the
     interim periods on a basis consistent with that of prior periods.

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements are presented in accordance
     with the requirements of Form 10-Q and, consequently, do not include all
     the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting
     principles or those normally made in Scioto Downs' (the Company) annual
     Form 10-K filing. All adjustments that are necessary for a fair statement
     of results for the interim period are normal and recurring. Reference
     should be made to the Company's 1997 Form 10-K for additional disclosures,
     including a summary of the Company's accounting policies.

     The year-end balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements
     but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted
     accounting principles.


2.   LOSS PER SHARE:

     Net loss per share for both basic and diluted is derived by dividing net
     loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the
     period.


3.   INCOME TAXES:

     The Company has recorded a deferred income tax benefit at the anticipated
     effective tax rate for fiscal year 1998.

                                                                               5

PART I.FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
          AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations and other parts of this report contain forward-looking statements
that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results in 1998 and
future periods may differ significantly from the prospects discussed in the
forward-looking statements.


GENERAL

Due to the seasonal nature of the business, the Company experiences net
operating losses during the first two quarters of the fiscal year. In addition,
the Company uses this same time to perform routine repairs and maintenance and
facility improvements. During the first quarter of 1998, the Company continued
to service the debt on the Clubhouse and the recently purchased simulcasting
equipment via internal funds, which affects the liquidity and cash flow of the
Company.

The racing season at Scioto Downs annually falls within the third quarter,
ending in July. The majority of rental income from leasing the facility to
Mid-America Racing Association is earned during the fourth quarter of the year,
ending in October.


THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31,
1997

Operating revenues decreased by $53,088 to $19,903 for the three months ended
January 31, 1998 from $72,991 for the three months ended January 31, 1997. The
decrease was due primarily to a change in the agreement with Beulah Park. Beulah
Park will pay reduced shared revenues to Scioto Downs during the three months
ended January 31, 1998. Scioto Downs, however, will pay reduced amounts to
Beulah Park during its racing season because of the modified agreement.
Operating expense decreased by $17,286 due to decreases in general office and
other expenses. Net interest expense increased by $5,469, which is due to the
simulcasting equipment financing.

                                                                               6
