If more than one (1) track races standardbreds or thoroughbreds, purses for that breed shall be divided to the purse accounts of the tracks in question proportionally based upon the number of live race dates for that breed. If more than one (1) track races quarter horses, purses for that breed shall be divided to the purse accounts of the tracks in question proportionally based upon the number of live races for that breed. To the extent practical, the revenue received under this subsection shall be distributed as purses for the benefit of horsemen in the year in which the revenue is received.
