Notwithstanding Sections 19605.8 and 19605.9, when satellite wagering is conducted on thoroughbred races at associations or fairs in the central or southern zone, an amount not to exceed 1.25 percent of the total amount handled by all of those satellite wagering facilities shall be deducted from the funds otherwise allocated for distribution as commissions, purses, and owners’ premiums and instead distributed to an organization formed and operated by thoroughbred racing associations, fairs conducting thoroughbred racing, and the organization representing thoroughbred horsemen and horsewomen, with each party having meaningful representation on the board of the organization, to administer, pursuant to supervision of the board, a fund to provide reimbursement for offsite stabling at board-approved auxiliary training facilities for additional stalls beyond the number of usable stalls the association or fair is required to make available and maintain pursuant to Section 19535, and for the vanning of starters from these additional stalls on racing days for thoroughbred horses.
