Kentucky State Representative Greg Stumbo says he wants to see video gambling terminals at horse racing tracks throughout the state.

Stumbo says he'll introduce the legislation during the 2009 General Assembly.

Under the bill gambling proceeds would help fund education, reduce taxes on motor vehicles and boats and help the state's horse industry.
