MID-STATE RACEWAY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Mid-State Raceway, Inc.
and Subsidiary (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 has been derived
from the audited balance sheet included in the Company's annual report filed on
Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, quarterly results include all
adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) that the Company
considers necessary for a fair presentation of such information for interim
periods. Results shown for the latest interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year.

The unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
subsidiary. These financial statements have not been reviewed by independent
accountants as required. Upon completion of a review, an amendment to this Form
10Q will be filed if necessary. All material intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The components of comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:

remaining amounts will be paid in monthly instalments of $10,000 per month from
March 2003 to December 2003 and $16,974 per month from January 2004 to December

MID-STATE RACEWAY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. LINE OF CREDIT

The revolving line of credit in the amount of $351,000 was terminated in October
2001 and fully repaid in January 2002.

5. LONG-TERM DEBT

During 2001 the Company was in default on certain long-term debt due to
non-payment of interest and/or principal. In March 2002 substantially all of the
Company's long-term debt was refinanced through a $8,500,000 mortgage loan
agreement with ALL Capital, LLC (an unaffiliated company). The refinancing
included repayment of a $700,000 line of credit agreement which was initiated in
2001.

6. PURCHASE OPTION AGREEMENT

In September 2001 the Board of Director's authorized its President and Chief
Executive Officer to execute an exclusive option agreement for the sale of the
Company to a group of private purchasers. Consistent with the execution of the
option agreement the purchasers provided a $700,000 line of credit previously
discussed. In June 2002 management notified the group of purchasers that option
agreement had been terminated. As a result of the termination the Company may be
required to pay $130,000 to the group.

7. DELINQUENT SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (SEC) FILINGS

The Company is delinquent in filing a number of periodic reports, including
annual and quarterly financial information, required to be filed with the SEC.
The consequences of the Company's failure to file these reports and the actions,
if any, that the SEC might initiate against the Company in this connection, are
not presently determinable.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OPERATING REVENUES

During the quarter ended June 30, 2001 operating revenue increased by $107,244
or 5% when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and by $756,052 or 24%
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 compared to the six months ended June 30,
2000. This increase in revenue results from an increase in number of racing days
in the quarter and six month period ended June 30, 2001 compared to June 30,
2000 (27 days versus 23 days) which increased wagering. In addition, the hotel
was acquired in June 2000 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2001
include revenue from room rentals and food and beverage concessions for the
entire period in 2001.


8


OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses increased by $301,959 or 12% for the quarter ended June 30,
2001 when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000. For the six months ended
June 30, 2001, expenses increased by $1,047,451 or 32% when compared to the six
months ended June 30, 2000. These increases are mainly due to increases in
payroll and benefits, simulcast expenses, utilities, and food and beverage costs
due to the increased operating revenue discussed above.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Increase in interest expense of $111,563 in the quarter ended June 30, 2001
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and $193,085 in the six months ended
June 30, 2001 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000 is due to the
increase in the amount of long-term debt in the prior twelve months to provide
funds for operations.

INCOME TAXES

Income tax expense was not significant in the quarter or six months ended June
30, 2001 due to the loss incurred from operations. Income tax expense of
$376,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 represents the tax effect of the
extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of the deferred retirement benefit
liability recognized in 2000.

NET INCOME (LOSS)

The net loss for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 was $378,495 higher than the
net loss in the quarter ended June 30, 2000. The loss for the six months ended
June 30, 2001 was $703,765 compared to income of $775,115 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000. This is the result of the extraordinary gain of $970,061
recognized in 2000 for the extinguishment of the deferred retirement liability
as well as increased interest expense in 2001. The increased operating revenues
in 2001 were offset by increased expenses and did not provide substantial
increases in profitability in 2001.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 2001 the Company had $577,434 of cash and cash equivalents versus
$146,180 at December 31, 2000. Operating losses for the six months ended June
30, 2001 were funded by sales of investments in the amount of $476,092, and debt
proceeds. Remaining investments at fair market value are $37,100 at June 30,
2001.

Proceeds from debt were $508,472 for the six months ended June 30, 2001
increasing cash and cash equivalents by $431,254 for the six-month period.
Increase in current portion of long-term debt from December 31, 2000 is due to
$2,816,000 due to a third party bankruptcy trustee for the purchase of the
hotel. This amount was due February 2002 but repaid in March 2002 per
refinancing discussed in the notes to the financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There were no material changes in the Company's market risk or related
strategies during the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Within the 90 days before the date of this Form 10-Q, we evaluated the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our "disclosure controls and
procedures." Mid-State Raceway, Inc. and Subsidiary conducted this evaluation
under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer.

(i) Definition of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are
designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be
disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this
report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms. As defined by the SEC, such disclosure
controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that
such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including
the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, in
such a manner as to allow timely disclosure decisions.

(ii) Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and
Internal Controls.

The Company recognizes that a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as
well as a system of internal controls), no matter how well conceived and
operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system
are met. Further, the design of such a system must reflect the fact that there
are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered
relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control
systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all
control issues have been detected. These inherent limitations include the
realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns
can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be
circumvented in a number of ways. Because of the inherent limitations in a
cost-effective control system, system failures may occur and not be detected.

(iii) Conclusions with Respect to Our Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures.

Subject to the limitations described above, our Chief Executive Officer and
Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material
information relating to Mid-State Raceway, Inc. and subsidiary required to be
included in The Company's periodic SEC filings.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls.

There have been no significant changes in The Company's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the
date of their evaluation.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
