6618-00 Parimutuel horse racing: Special horse racing account (used only by horse racing underwriter)
This classification may not be assigned to any account and no claims may be charged to it. This classification is solely for the collection of fees assessed on horse owner licenses. The horse racing commission collects the fees from horse owners and deposits the money into the special horse racing account to help fund workers' compensation coverage for injured workers. (Payment of this fee is mandatory, but does not extend coverage to owners. Owners may apply for individual coverage.) The owners' fees are based on the percentage of a horse or horses they own, up to a maximum of $150.00.
