Wednesday, November 17, 2010

The Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma has withdrawn a request for a racetrack license from the Texas Racing Commission.

The tribe's subsidiary, Global Gaming Solutions, bought the Lone Star Park in Grand Prairie for $47.8 million at a bankruptcy auction. The goal is to restart operations but no explanation was given for the withdrawal.

"The commitment is still there," spokesperson Kym Koch told The Dallas Morning News.
