10.19 	received from a licensee shall be allocated to the breeder's fund to be used for each breed 
10.20 	racing at a class A licensed facility in amounts determined by the commission. Amounts 
10.21 	transferred by the commission to a breeder's fund shall be used for the purposes of section 
10.22 	240.18, subdivisions 2, paragraph (d); and 3, paragraph (b), subject to the proportionality 
10.23 	requirement in section 240.18, subdivision 1. The commission shall routinely transfer 
10.24 	the money in the purse fund accounts to the licensees conducting racing for each breed 
10.25 	and direct the licensee to augment the purses for that breed with the funds received from 
10.26 	the commission. Purse augmentations required under this subdivision are in addition to 
10.27 	purse payments otherwise established by law or contract. The location contract holder and 
10.28 	the organization representing the majority of horsepersons racing at the location contract 
10.29 	holder's racetrack may, by written contract, agree to use a portion of the transferred 
10.30 	funds for racing related purposes other than purse augmentation. The commission shall 
10.31 	determine the percentages of the purse fund account to be designated for the augmentation 
10.32 	of the purses of each breed racing at a class A facility. The determination shall be based 
10.33 	on consumer preference and a goal of maximizing the economic impact of horse racing 
10.34 	in Minnesota.
11.1 	(b) If more than one breed of horse races at a class A facility during any year, the 
11.2 	owners and trainers of the various breeds, through the organization representing each 
11.3 	breed, may agree to revise the percentages designated by the commission. The agreement 
11.4 	must be in writing, adopted by each organization, and be filed with the commission. 
11.5 	No agreement shall be valid for more than one year. Four percent of the contributions 
11.6 	received from the licensee shall be placed in an equine industry enhancement fund 
11.7 	established by the commission. The commission shall award grants from this account 
11.8 	designed to support and improve the racing and nonracing equine industry including, 
11.9 	but not limited to, construction of facilities and trails, production of shows, and issues 
11.10 	related to retired horses.
