NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

       The information furnished reflects all adjustments which 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. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

       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, Inc.'s (the
       Company) annual Form 10-K filing. 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.

       Certain items have been reclassified in the accompanying financial
       statements for prior periods to conform with the presentation in the
       current period.

                                                                               7

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 and second quarters of 1998, the Company
continued to service the debt on the Clubhouse and the simulcasting equipment
via internal funds, which affects the liquidity and cash flow of the Company.

The entire racing season at Scioto Downs falls within the third quarter ending
July 31st. The majority of rental income from leasing the facility and the
simulcasting equipment to Mid-America Racing Association is earned during the
fourth quarter ending October 31st.



             THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THE
                     THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 1997

Income from racing operations before taxes was $1,386,775, which is a decrease
of $40,312, or 2.8%. The decrease was derived from a rise in operating expenses
of $123,585, offset by an increase in operating revenues of $83,273.

Operating revenues increased due to an increase in net pari-mutuel commissions
and breakage of $68,020, or 1.3%. This increase in net pari-mutual commissions
and breakage is attributable to additional simulcasting handle, along with an
increase in admissions of $60,059 due to fewer free passes and free admission
racing nights.

Operating expenses increased primarily due to an increase in purse expense of
$262,190, offset by a reduction in salaries and wages of $32,937, resulting from
the employment of fewer pari-mutuel clerks. Simulcasting shared expense
decreased $178,569 as a result of a change in the simulcasting agreement with
Beulah Park. Simulcasting fees increased $85,608 due to an increase in the total
handle of imported races into the facility. Interest expense increased $16,234
with the addition of the sumulcasting equipment note entered in July 1997.

                                                                               8

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS, CONTINUED



                     NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 1998
             COMPARED TO THE NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED JULY 31, 1997

Income from racing operations before taxes was $299,149 which is a decrease of
$247,916, or 45.3%. The decrease was derived from a rise in operating expenses
of $158,030 and a decrease in operating revenues of $89,886.

Operating revenues decreased due to a change in the simulcasting agreement with
Beulah Park whereby the Company receives revenue, net of expenses, in the
current year. In fiscal year 1997, simulcasting shared revenue, net of expenses,
was $69,893 compared to $75,856 in 1998. Concessions, program, parking and other
decreased $19,851 due mainly to a decrease in income from concessionaire
operations.

Operating expenses increased primarily due to an increase in purse expense of
$262,190, offset by a reduction in salaries and wages of $39,098 resulting from
the employment of fewer pari-mutuel clerks. Other operating and general expenses
increased $46,950 due mainly to increases in legal, accounting, office supplies
and other miscellaneous expense items. Interest expense increased $43,964 with
the addition of the sumulcasting equipment note entered in July 1997.



                         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities was $1,228,156 for the nine months ended
July 31, 1998 as compared to cash provided by operations of $246,136 for the
nine months ended July 31, 1997. The increase of $982,020 in cash provided by
operating activities was primarily a result of increases in accounts and purses
payable of $810,697 and accrued expenses of $67,480, offset by other changes in
operating assets and liabilities.

                                                                               9
