According to this, Colonial's own ADW (EZ Horseplay, which they shut down this week) has been withholding the 5% share from the ADW tax to the Virginia Horsemen's purse fund since November 1. Litigation expected.
There's also a statement from the Va Equine Alliance that they hope to run harness racing in October, and turf racing next year, at Oak Ridge Estates in Nelson County. This is a hunt club halfway between Charlottesville and Lynchburg. Google map (you may have to zoom out to see the oval) ...

(and you thought halfway between Richmond and Williamsburg was a remote location.) |
That Nelson County track must be doing one great business.. I can't get a bet down on them at Twinspires..... Oh wait a minute, I've never even heard of the place.
New Kent wasn't remote at all... But in Virginia, I think you either put it in Richmond or in one of the Hampton Roads cities. No halfway business with this traffic here.
