NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND 1995 (UNAUDITED)
- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    The summary of significant accounting policies is included in the notes to
    consolidated financial statements in the 1995 Annual Report on form 10-KSB.

    UNCASHED WINNING TICKETS- On April 11, 1996, legislation became effective in
    Minnesota whereby winning pari-mutuel tickets which are not cashed within
    one year of the end of the respective race meet will become the property of
    the Company.  The legislation is effective through December 31, 1999 after
    which uncashed winning tickets will again be remitted to the State of
    Minnesota. The Company will record revenue associated with the uncashed
    winning tickets at the time that management estimates, based on historical
    experience, that management can reasonably estimate the amount of additional
    winning tickets from a race meet that will be presented for payment.  For
    the six months ended June 30, 1996, approximately $17,000 has been recorded
    in pari-mutuel revenue related to uncashed tickets.

    PARI-MUTUEL TAXES- The legislation referred to above also provided that,
    beginning July 1, 1996, the first $12 million of pari-mutuel revenue would
    be exempt from the 6% pari-mutuel tax.  The legislation is effective until
    July 1, 1999 and will benefit the horsepersons' purse fund as well as the
    Company. Effective July 1, 1996, pari-mutuel taxes will be estimated for
    each 12 month period from July 1 through June 30, and an estimated annual
    effective rate will be applied to all pari-mutuel revenues.

    UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The consolidated balance sheet as of June
    30, 1996, the consolidated statement of operations for the three and six
    months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the consolidated statement of cash
    flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the related
    information contained in these notes have been prepared by management
    without audit.  In the opinion of management, all accruals (consisting of
    normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of
    financial position and results of operations for such periods have been
    made.  Results for an interim period should not be considered as indicative
    of results for a full year.

2.  RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    At June 30, 1996, the Company had a $3,000,000 unsecured line of credit
    arrangement with the Company's majority shareholder, of which $1,770,108 was
    outstanding.  The interest rate for borrowings under the line of credit is
    prime plus 2%.  Management believes that funds available under this line of
    credit, or any other line of credit which replaces it, along with funds
    generated from simulcast operations, will be sufficient to satisfy its
    liquidity and capital resource requirements during 1996.  If the line of
    credit is not replaced, the Company's majority shareholder has agreed not to
    terminate this line of credit prior to March 31, 1997.

3.  CONTINGENCIES

    In accordance with an Earn Out Note, given to the prior owner of the
    racetrack as part of the purchase price, if (i) off-track betting becomes
    legally permissible in the State of Minnesota and (ii) the Company begins to
    conduct off-track betting with respect to or in connection with its
    operations, the Company will be required to pay to the IMR Fund, L.P. the
    greater of $700,000 per operating year, as defined, or 20% of the net pretax
    profit, as defined, for each of five operating years.  At the date (if any)
    that these two conditions are met, the five minimum payments will be
    discounted back to their present value and the sum of those discounted
    payments will be recorded as an increase to the purchase price. The purchase
    price will be further increased if payments become due under the 20% of Net
    Pre-Tax Profit calculation.  The first payment is to be made 90 days after
    the end of the third operating year in which off-track betting is conducted
    by the Company.  Remaining payments would be made within 90 days of the end
    of each of the next four operating years.

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

     Canterbury Park Holding Corporation (the "Company") owns and operates 
Canterbury Park (the "Racetrack"), the only pari-mutuel horse racing facility 
in the State of Minnesota.  The Company's revenues for the period from 
January 1, 1996 to June 30, 1996 were derived primarily from pari-mutuel 
take-out on races simulcast to Canterbury Park from racetracks throughout the 
country during 155 days of simulcast racing and from 23 days of live racing 
conducted at Canterbury Park.  In 1996 the Company intends to conduct over 
300 simulcast racing days and 51 days of live racing featuring thoroughbred 
and quarter horse racing at Canterbury Park as the Company conducts its live 
racing meet from May 25, 1996 to August 18, 1996.  In addition to pari-mutuel 
revenues, the Company generates revenues from admissions, advertising, 
parking, publication sales, concessions, special events and other sources of 
revenue.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 AND JUNE 30, 1995:

     While revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996 were flat compared 
to the same period in 1995, the net loss for the 1996 period was $78,693 
compared to a loss of $778,205 for the same period of 1995.  The significant 
improvement in operating results for the first six months of 1996 compared to 
the first six months of 1995 is due primarily to an 8.6% decrease in 
operating expenses.  At June 30, 1996, the Company was in the midst of 
hosting its second live  meet.  Experience gained during the 1995 live meet 
has enabled the Company to reduce expenses, particularly labor costs, in 1996.

     In addition to labor costs, repairs and maintenance expense for the 1996 
period was substantially lower than the prior year due to the significant 
repairs and maintenance necessary to return live racing to the facility in 
1995 for the first time in almost three years.

  ON-TRACK AVERAGE DAILY HANDLE                   $     213,019   $     209,076



     As illustrated in the above table, attendance on simulcast only days for 
the six months ended June 30, 1996 was approximately the same as the first 
six months of 1995.  However, average daily handle on simulcast days 
increased by 8.2% due to an increase in per capita wagering from $285 in 1995 
to $311 in 1996.

     On 23 live racing days during the six months ended June 30, 1996, 
average daily attendance declined by 10.3% and average on-track live and 
simulcast handle decreased by 8.4% compared to the 24 live racing days 
conducted during the six months ended June 30, 1995.  The reduction is due 
primarily to differences in the racing schedule which featured an earlier 
start and an additional week-end of live racing during the 1995 period.  
These changes in the racing schedule resulted in four day weeks in 1996 while 
the 1995 live meet commenced with several three day weeks highlighted by 
large opening weekend crowds.

     While on-track handle during the live meet showed a decline for the 1996 
period compared to 1995, total average daily handle, which includes amounts 
wagered on Canterbury Park live races transmitted to out-of-state simulcast 
sites, increased by over 18% from $537,000 to $638,000.  The 274% increase in 
out-of-state handle for the 1996 period is due to a change to night racing on 
Thursday, Friday and Saturday as well as greater interest in the Canterbury 
Park racing program by simulcast sites throughout the country.  While the 
gains in out-of-state handle represent a positive trend, the Company's profit 
margin on wagers placed on Canterbury Park live races at out-of-state 
locations is substantially less than the margin on wagers placed at 
Canterbury Park.

     One of the Company's largest single expense items is horsepersons 
purses, which Minnesota law requires to be set aside from pari-mutuel 
revenues.  The minimum percentage required by law to be set aside for purses 
varies substantially depending on the time of the year the simulcasting is 
conducted. For a 25 week period beginning in early May, which is the 
statutorily-established "Racing Season," 50% of the net retainage is 
allocated to a fund for the


                                    - 8 -


<PAGE>


payment of purses during the live meet.  For the remaining 27 weeks of the 
year, November through April, funds accumulate for purses at the rate of 25% 
of retainage after deducting an 8% expense factor.  Therefore, during the 
first four months and last two months of any calendar year, the Company 
benefits from the lower "non-racing season" purse rate.

     On April 11, 1996, legislation became effective in Minnesota whereby 
winning pari-mutuel tickets which are not cashed within one year of the end 
of the respective race meet will become the property of the Company.  The 
legislation is effective through December 31, 1999 after which uncashed 
winning tickets will again be remitted to the State of Minnesota.  The 
Company will record revenue associated with the uncashed winning tickets at 
the time that management estimates, based on historical experience, that 
management can reasonably estimate the amount of additional winning tickets 
from a race meet that will be presented for payment.  For the six months 
ended June 30, 1996, approximately $17,000 has been recorded in pari-mutuel 
revenue related to uncashed tickets.

     The legislation referred to above also provided that, beginning July 1, 
1996, the first $12 million of pari-mutuel revenue would be exempt from the 
6% pari-mutuel tax.  The legislation is effective until July 1, 1999 and will 
benefit the horsepersons' purse fund as well as the Company.  Effective July 
1, 1996, pari-mutuel taxes will be estimated for each 12 month period from 
July 1 through June 30, and an estimated annual effective rate will be 
applied to all pari-mutuel revenues.

     During the first six months of 1996, Canterbury Park hosted two major 
competitive snowmobile races and a three-day arts and crafts fair, drawing an 
average of more than 15,000 spectators per event.  During the comparable 
period in 1995, Canterbury Park hosted one snowmobile race and an arts and 
crafts fair.  The snowmobile race in 1995, although gaining Canterbury Park a 
reputation as one of the premier snowmobile racing venues in the world, was 
not profitable.  The Company hosted a series of three snowmobiling events at 
the facility during the 1995-1996 winter season.  This allowed the Company to 
allocate the cost of preparing the racing surface to three events compared to 
only the single event in February of 1995.  In addition, the Company did not 
directly promote the events in 1996, but rather leased the facility to the 
promoters.  This reduced the Company's risk and eliminated approximately 
$75,000 of other operating expenses related to the 1995 race.  These expenses 
are not reflected in the 1996 financial statements as the costs were paid 
directly or reimbursed by the promoters.

     Admissions and parking, programs and racing forms, and other operating 
revenues were lower for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the 
same period in 1995, due primarily to lower total attendance.

     Salaries and benefits are lower for the 1996 period than in 1995 due to 
a later start for live racing in 1996, and to operating efficiencies gained 
primarily in the concessions and mutuels areas.  In addition, after the 1995 
live meet, certain reductions and consolidations of full-time staff were 
enacted to reduce wage expenses for the Company.

     Depreciation and amortization have increased from the 1995 period due to 
the acquisition of significant amounts of video equipment in the second 
quarter of 1995 and other acquisitions since that time.


                                    - 9 -

<PAGE>

     Repairs, maintenance and supplies expenditures decreased 50% from the 
comparable period last year.  This is due primarily to the extensive repairs 
and improvements necessary in 1995 to prepare the facility for the inaugural 
1995 live race meet.

     Other operating expense levels were lower for the 1996 period due to 
stabilization of operations and increased focus on expense control in 1996.

     Net interest expense has increased 57% from the six-month period ending 
June 30, 1995 due to increases in amounts payable to horsepersons and in 
advances on a line of credit with Mr. Curtis Sampson, the Company's Chairman. 
The average daily balance of advances on the line of credit was approximately 
$1.8 million for the first half of 1996, compared to $1.3 million for the 
first half of 1995. The average interest rate on the line of credit was 
10.39% in 1996 compared to 10.91% for the 1995 period.  The average daily 
balance of amounts payable to Horsepersons was approximately $475,000 for the 
six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to approximately $385,000 for the six 
months ended June 30, 1995.  In addition, the interest rate paid on amounts 
due to Horsepersons has increased  from 6.0% during the first six months of 
1995 to an average of 8.25% for the same period in 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During the period January 1, 1996 through June 30, 1996, cash provided 
by operating activities was $1,209,147, which resulted principally from an 
increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $828,478.  Other items 
providing cash from operations included depreciation and amortization 
(noncash expenses) of $395,444, an increase in the payable to horsepersons of 
$227,627 and an increase in accrued interest of $13,864. These items are 
partially offset by the net loss from operations of $78,693 and an increase 
in accounts receivable and other current assets of $177,027.

     During the period January 1, 1996 through June 30, 1996, cash used in 
financing activities was $637,963, which was primarily the result of payments 
reducing the Company's line of credit with the Company's Chaiman of the 
Board. During the 1995 period, the $681,465 provided by financing activities 
represented net proceeds from advances on the line of credit.

     Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 
1996 was $253,189, which reflected the net result of additions to property 
and equipment of $320,689 and the proceeds of the sale of excess video 
equipment of $67,500.  For the comparable 1995 period net cash used in 
investing activities was $813,540 which resulted from additions to property 
and equipment, primarily video production equipment, necessary for live 
racing.

     Under its agreement with the horsepersons' associations  the Company is 
required to segregate purse funds received from simulcasting for future 
payment as purses for live racing or for other uses of the horsepersons.  
Pursuant to this agreement, during the six months ended June 30, 1996, the 
Company has transferred into a trust account to paid directly to the 
horsepersons approximately $1,225,000.  At June 30, 1996, the Company had an 
additional $761,338 liability to the horsepersons which will be paid with 
interest in 1996 in accordance with the agreement.

     The Company believes that the funds to be generated from operations
together with funds available under its $3,000,000 line of credit with Mr.
Sampson will be sufficient to satisfy

its liquidity and capital resource requirements for the next twelve months.  
The Company anticipates that it may pay down a portion of the borrowings 
under the line of credit with funds generated from operations and borrow 
additional amounts under the line of credit as funds are needed for working 
capital purposes.  The Company is also attempting to obtain a credit facility 
from a traditional lender to replace the line of credit with Mr. Sampson.  
Mr. Sampson has advised the Company that if it is unable to obtain a credit 
facility from a traditional lender, then he will keep his line of credit in 
place until at least March 31, 1997.  As of August 5, 1996, borrowings under 
the line of credit were $1,960,201.
