NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998 (UNAUDITED)
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The summary of significant accounting policies is included in the notes to
     consolidated financial statements in the 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

     INCOME TAXES - Income tax expense is computed by applying the estimated
     annual effective tax rate to the year-to-date income. For the periods
     ending March 31,1999 and 1998, income tax expense of approximately $130,000
     and $222,000, respectively, is offset by a reduction in the valuation
     allowance recorded on the deferred tax asset related to the Company's net
     operating loss carryforward.

     NET INCOME PER SHARE - Effective December 15, 1997, the Company adopted the
     provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings
     per Share". The Statement requires the Company to present its net income
     per share in basic and diluted forms and to restate net income per share
     from prior periods to conform with the new statement. Basic net income per
     common share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
     outstanding during each year. Diluted net income per common share takes
     into effect the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding. The
     Company's only potential common shares outstanding are stock options and
     warrants.

     UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - The consolidated balance sheet as of March
     31, 1999, the consolidated statements of operations for the three months
     ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the consolidated statements of cash flows
     for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, 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.   BORROWINGS UNDER CREDIT AGREEMENT

     Borrowings under the Company's credit agreement with Bremer Bank include a
     commercial revolving credit line which provides for maximum advances of
     $2,250,000 with interest at the prime rate. Borrowings under the credit
     line were $608,449 at December 31, 1998. The Company had no borrowings
     under this credit line at March 31, 1999. The credit agreement contains
     certain covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain financial
     ratios. The Company was in compliance with these requirements as of March
     31, 1999. Management believes that funds available under this line of
     credit, along with funds generated from simulcast operations, will be
     sufficient to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource requirements
     during 1999.

                                      6

3.   OPERATING SEGMENTS

     The Company has two reportable operating segments: horse racing and
     concessions. The horse racing segment includes simulcast and live racing
     operations. The concessions segment provides concessions during simulcast
     racing, live racing and special events. The Company's reportable operating
     segments are strategic business units that offer different products and
     services. They are managed separately because the segments differ in the
     nature of the products and services provided as well as processes to
     produce those products and services. The horse racing segment is regulated
     by the State of Minnesota Racing Commission.

     The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those
     described in the summary of significant accounting policies.

     All depreciation, interest expense and income taxes are recorded in the
     horse racing segment and no allocation is made to concessions for shared
     facilities. However, the concessions segment pays approximately 25% of
     gross revenues to the horse racing segment for use of the facilities.

     The following table provides information about the Company's operating
     segments (in 000's):

4.   CONTINGENCIES

     In accordance with an Earn Out Note, given to the prior owner of the
     racetrack as part of the consideration paid by the Company to acquire the
     racetrack, 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.

5.   CURRENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     SFAS No. 133, ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING 
     ACTIVITIES, was issued in June 1998. SFAS No. 133 provides a 
     comprehensive standard for the recognition and measurement of 
     derivatives and hedging activities. The standard requires all 
     derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and 
     establishes special accounting for three types of hedges. SFAS No. 133 
     is effective for the Company year beginning January 1, 2000. The Company 
     does not have investments in derivatives and does not participate in 
     hedging activities. The Company is currently assessing the impact SFAS 
     No. 133 will have on the Company's financial position and results of 
     operations.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

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 three month periods ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998 were derived primarily from pari-mutuel take-out on
races simulcast year-round to Canterbury Park from racetracks throughout the
country. In addition the Company earns pari-mutuel take-out during live race
meets featuring thoroughbred, quarter horse and harness racing. In 1998 the
Company conducted 364 days of simulcast racing including 55 days of live racing.
During 1999 the Company plans to conduct 364 days of simulcast racing, including
56 days of live racing, commencing May 15th and ending on August 22nd with the
Festival of Champions. During live race meets, the Company televises its races
to out-of-state racetracks around the country. The Company earns additional
pari-mutuel revenue on wagers placed at out-of-state racetracks. In addition to
pari-mutuel revenues, the Company generates revenues from admissions, parking,
publication sales, concession sales, special events, facility rental,
advertising and other sources.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 
- -------------------------------------------------------------------
MARCH 31, 1998:
- ---------------

     During the first three months of 1999 the Company conducted 90 simulcast 
racing days, the same number as in 1998.  Total wagering handle for the 
quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 was $13,995,137 and $13,366,505, 
respectively.  Total attendance for the periods ending March 31, 1999 and 
1998 was 42,830 and 41,657, respectively, resulting in an average of 476 and 
463 patrons per simulcast day, respectively, and per-patron wagering of $327 
and $321, respectively.

     Pari-mutuel revenue or "take-out" (gross wagering after deducting 
statutorily mandated amounts from the handle to be paid to winning bettors) 
for the quarters ending March 31, 1999 and 1998 was $2,832,541 and 
$2,697,412, respectively. Total pari-mutuel expenses including state 
pari-mutuel taxes, contributions to the Minnesota Breeders' Fund, statutory 
purses and host fees were $917,009 and $879,102 for the quarters ending March 
31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     Admissions and parking revenues decreased to $7,210 for the quarter ended
March 31, 1999 compared to $54,108 for the first quarter in 1998. The Company
has implemented a free admission policy for simulcast racing in 1999 in an
effort to boost attendance and handle.

                                      9
<PAGE>


     Operating expenses in the first quarter of 1999 (excluding pari-mutuel
expenses) increased by only $9,000, or .4%, compared to 1998. Increases in
salary and benefit costs were offset by lower simulcast expenses due to
Canterbury Park entering into a Hub agreement with Sportsmans Park effective
February 16, 1999. The Company's property tax liability for 1999 was lower than
1998 by approximately $61,000, resulting in lower expense for 1999. Depreciation
and amortization also declined because certain assets acquired with the Company
in 1994 became fully depreciated in 1999. Interest expense is lower in 1999 due
to lower balances outstanding under the line of credit agreement compared to
1998. The line of credit was paid off at March 31, 1999, compared to debt of
$917,443 at March 31, 1998.

     Net income before income taxes was $627,426 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999 compared to $524,148 in 1998. Income tax expense was $100,000 for
the first quarter of 1999, resulting in net income of $527,426. In the first
quarter of 1998, income tax expense of $222,000 was entirely offset by a
reduction in the valuation allowance. In 1999, the entire amount of income tax
expense could not be offset because the majority of the valuation allowance was
utilized in fiscal year 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
- --------------------------------

     During the period January 1, 1999 through March 31, 1999, cash provided by
operating activities was $709,610, which resulted principally from net income of
$527,426, depreciation and amortization of $181,746, an increase in accounts
payable and accrued expenses of $193,872 and an increase in accrued property
taxes of $56,930. These items were partially offset by a decrease in income
taxes payable of $101,495, an increase in accounts receivable of $61,908 and a
decrease in accrued interest of $57,607. Cash provided by operating activities
for the three months ended March 31, 1998 of $985,909 resulted primarily from
net income of $524,148, depreciation and amortization of $222,088, an increase
in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $179,061 and an increase in accrued
property taxes of $86,056.

     Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarters of 1999
and 1998 resulted primarily from acquisitions of equipment of $64,219 and
$31,080, respectively.

     Cash used in financing activities during the first three months of 1999
consists of payments totaling $608,449, to retire the Company's line of credit
balance with Bremer Bank. In addition, the liability to the Minnesota Horsemens
Benevolent and Protective Association ("MHBPA") was reduced by $82,381.
Exercises of stock options during the first quarter of 1999 provided cash flows
from financing activities of $154,499. Cash used in financing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 consisted of payments on the advance from
shareholder of $734,499, and payments on the advance from MHBPA of $356,733.

                                      10

     The Company is required by statute to segregate a portion of funds 
received from wagering on simulcast and live horse races for future payment 
as purses for live horse races at the Racetrack or other uses of Minnesota's 
horsepersons associations. Pursuant to an agreement with the MHBPA, during 
the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company transferred into 
a trust account for these purposes or paid directly to the MHBPA 
approximately $400,000 and $600,000 respectively. At March 31, 1999, the 
Company had an additional liability to MHBPA of $464,033. This liability will 
be paid in 1999, including interest earned at the prime lending rate, in 
accordance with the agreement.

     Until June 11, 1998 the Company had a $3,000,000 line of credit 
arrangement with the Chairman of the Board. The interest rate for borrowings 
under this line of credit was the prime rate. This line of credit was paid 
off on June 11, 1998 and was replaced by a credit agreement with Bremer Bank. 
Borrowings under the credit agreement include a commercial revolving credit 
line which provides for maximum advances of $2,250,000 with interest at the 
prime rate. The credit agreement contains certain covenants requiring the 
Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The Company was in compliance 
with these requirements as of March 31, 1999.

     The Company believes that the funds to be generated from operations 
together with funds available under its $2,250,000 line of credit with Bremer 
Bank will be sufficient to satisfy its liquidity and capital resource 
requirements for the next twelve months. The Company has paid off its 
borrowings under the line of credit as of March 31, 1999 with funds generated 
from operations and anticipates it will borrow additional amounts under the 
line of credit as funds are needed for working capital purposes.

OPERATING PLAN:
- ---------------

     The Company plans a 56-day live race meet in 1999 consisting of 26 days 
of mixed Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing, and 30 days of Thoroughbred 
racing.

     The Company's ability to operate profitably in 1999 will largely depend 
on its ability to maintain levels of attendance and wagering handle for live 
and simulcast racing at levels similar to previous years. The Company will 
also need to maintain operating expenses at levels similar to 1998. In 
addition, the Company continues to pursue the expansion of special events at 
the Racetrack in order to maximize the potential of the facility year-round.

     Management intends to continue pursuing legislation for additional 
potential sources of revenue. These efforts could result in increased 
legislative related expenses in the future.

YEAR 2000:
- ----------

     The Company has identified and evaluated its in-house personal computer 
systems for year 2000 compliance. These PC based applications are compliant 
and are not considered to be critical to the Company's daily operations. The 
Company utilizes a racing office administrative network system which was 
considered to be obsolete and has been replaced. The new system will be 
functional for the 1999 live race meet beginning May 1999. The total cost of 
software and hardware replacement for the racing office system is estimated 
to be approximately $25,000.

                                      11
<PAGE>


     The Company has evaluated the impact that the failure of significant 
suppliers to achieve year 2000 readiness would have on its operations. The 
Company has a contract with Autotote Systems, Inc. ("Autotote") for 
totalizator services, including equipment and computer programs which record 
and process all wagers and calculate odds and payoffs, which was recently 
extended through April, 2004. Autotote has assured the Company, in writing, 
of their commitment to achieve year 2000 compliance. Should Autotote fail to 
remediate its own year 2000 issues, pari-mutuel wagering could be materially 
adversely affected at the Racetrack beginning January 1, 2000. If material 
year 2000 problems are experienced, the Company's contingency plan is to 
terminate its contract with Autotote for cause, and to enter into a 
comparable agreement with another of the industry's tote service providers at 
the earliest possible time. However, there can be no guarantee that the 
systems of alternative tote service providers would be year 2000 ready. If 
Autotote's totalizator equipment fails to achieve year 2000 compliance, and 
if other potential tote service providers are not year 2000 ready, the 
Company's operations could be materially adversely affected.

FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE PERFORMANCE:
- -------------------------------------

     From time to time, in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission, in press releases, and in other communications to shareholders or 
the investing public, the Company may comment on anticipated future financial 
performance. Such forward-looking statements, including statements contained 
in this Report on Form 10-QSB, are subject to risks and uncertainties which

wagering products introduced by competitors, higher than expected expenses, 
and other risks applicable to the horse racing industry generally.
