                              Hollywood Park, Inc.
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial information included herein has been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles as reflected in the financial
statements included in the consolidated annual report on Form 10-K of Hollywood
Park, Inc. (the "Company" or "Hollywood Park") filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 1995. This financial
information does not include certain footnotes and financial presentations
normally presented annually, and therefore, should be read in conjunction with
the Company's 1995 Form 10-K.

The information furnished herein is unaudited; however, in the opinion of
management it reflects all recurring adjustments that are necessary to present a
fair statement of the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are
of a normal and recurring nature. It should be understood that accounting
measurements at the interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on
estimates than at year end. The interim racing results of operations are not
indicative of the results for the full year due to the seasonality of the horse
racing business.

GENERAL  The Company owns and operates the Hollywood Park race track, a premier
thoroughbred racing facility located in California, Turf Paradise, Inc. ("Turf
Paradise"), a thoroughbred racing facility located in Arizona, and Sunflower
Racing, Inc. ("Sunflower"), operating as the Woodlands, a greyhound and
thoroughbred racing facility located in Kansas.  On May 17, 1996, under pressure
from intense competition from Missouri riverboat gaming, Sunflower filed for
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.  On the same property as
the Hollywood Park race track, the Company owns and operates the Hollywood Park-
Casino (the "Casino").  The Company owns 88% of Crystal Park Hotel and Casino
Development Co., LLC, ("Crystal Park LLC") which built and presently leases, the
Crystal Park Hotel and Casino, ("Crystal Park"), to an unaffiliated third party.
Crystal Park began operations on October 25, 1996.

SUNFLOWER  On May 2, 1996, the Kansas Legislature adjourned without passing
legislation that would have allowed additional gaming at Sunflower, thereby
permitting Sunflower to more effectively compete with Missouri riverboat gaming.
As a result of the outcome of the Kansas Legislative session, Hollywood Park
wrote off its approximately $11,412,000 investment in Sunflower.  There was no
cash involved with the write off of this investment.  On May 17, 1996, Sunflower
filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code.  Sunflower is
operating during the reorganization, but Sunflower's operating results from
April 1, 1996, forward were not consolidated with Hollywood Park's operating
results.

ACQUISITION OF PACIFIC CASINO MANAGEMENT, INC.  The Hollywood Park-Casino was
opened in July 1994 under a third party leasing arrangement with Pacific Casino
Management, Inc. ("PCM").  In 1994 under the California Gaming Registration Act,
it was the position of the California Attorney General that as a publicly traded
company, Hollywood Park was not eligible to register as an operator of a card
club, but could lease the site to a registered operator unaffiliated with the
Company.  On August 3, 1995, Senate Bill ("SB") 100 was enacted into law.  SB
100 does the following: (i) allows for a publicly traded racing association, or
a subsidiary thereof, (hereafter the "Racing Association") to operate a gaming
club on the premises of its race track; (ii) requires the officers, directors
and shareholders of 5.0% or more of a Racing Association (excluding
institutional investors) to be licensed by the Attorney General; (iii)
provisionally licenses a Racing Association and its officers, directors, and
5.0% shareholders to operate a gaming club on the premises of its race track
pending licenses pursuant to sub-paragraph (ii) above; (iv) allows a Racing
Association and its officers, directors and 5.0% shareholders to have an
interest in gaming activities located outside California that are not legal in
California.  The provisions of SB 100 are repealed effective January 1, 1999,
unless prior thereto the California legislature enacts a comprehensive scheme
for the regulation of gaming under the jurisdiction of a gaming control
commission.

                                       5

 
Pursuant to the authority provided by SB 100, on November 17, 1995, Hollywood
Park acquired substantially all the assets, property and business of PCM, and
assumed substantially all of PCM's liabilities. Prior to the acquisition, under
a lease with the Company, PCM operated the gaming floor activities of the
Hollywood Park-Casino.

The purchase price of PCM's net assets was an aggregate $2,640,000, payable in
shares of Hollywood Park common stock, in three installments: (i) shares of
Hollywood Park common stock having a value of $1,600,000, or 136,008 common
shares, issued on November 17, 1995; (ii) shares of Hollywood Park common stock
having a value of $540,000 on the first anniversary of the execution of the
acquisition; and (iii) shares of Hollywood Park common stock having a value of
$500,000 on the second anniversary of the execution of the acquisition; provided
that Hollywood Park may accelerate the payments; provided further, the aggregate
number of shares to be paid under clauses (ii) and (iii) may not exceed the
number of shares issued on November 17, 1995.  Shares to be issued in the
remaining two installments will be valued at the average market price of
Hollywood Park's common stock for the ten trading days immediately preceding the
payment date.

Virtually all of the approximately $21,568,000 of excess acquisition cost over
the recorded value of the net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and will
be amortized over 40 years.  The amortization of the goodwill is not deductible
for income tax purposes.

BOOMTOWN, INC. On April 23, 1996, the respective Boards of Directors of
Hollywood Park and of Boomtown, Inc. ("Boomtown") approved and signed the
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger") among Hollywood Park, Inc., HP
Acquisition, Inc. and Boomtown, Inc., where by way of a merger with HP
Acquisition, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Hollywood Park) Boomtown will
become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Merger has been approved by
both Hollywood Park's and Boomtown's common shareholders, and is expected to be
finalized in first quarter 1997. The Merger will be accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting, with each issued and outstanding share of
Boomtown common stock converted into 0.625 shares of Hollywood Park common
stock. Approximately 5,774,000 newly issued shares of the Company's common stock
will be issued in the Merger.

The Merger is subject to the following remaining conditions: the consent of the
holders of the majority of the outstanding principal amount of Boomtown's
outstanding bonds, and upon Hollywood Park, its management and Board of
Directors and Boomtown's management acquiring all required regulatory approvals
and gaming permits.  The application process for the required regulatory
approvals and gaming permits is in progress.  In addition, Boomtown intends to
seek the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Boomtown bonds in connection with the Blue Diamond Swap (as defined
below).  As of the effective date of the Merger, a total of eleven persons will
serve on the Board of Directors of the combined companies, four of whom will be
former directors of Boomtown.

Boomtown owns and operates land-based, dockside and riverboat gaming operations
in Verdi, Nevada ("Boomtown Reno"), Las Vegas, Nevada ("Boomtown Las Vegas"),
Biloxi, Mississippi ("Boomtown Biloxi"), and Harvey, Louisiana ("Boomtown New
Orleans").  Boomtown's properties offer full casino gaming, hotel accommodations
(at Boomtown Reno and Boomtown Las Vegas only), and other entertainment
amenities to primarily middle income, value oriented customers.

Boomtown Reno has been operating for over a quarter century and is located
approximately two miles from the California - Nevada border on Interstate 80,
the major highway connecting northern California and Reno.  Boomtown Reno is
situated on 569 acres with approximately 61 acres used for current operations.
Boomtown Reno's customer base is primarily drawn from Interstate 80 traffic.
Boomtown Reno offers its guests a 40,000 square foot casino, including 1,433
slot machines and 43 table games, a 122-room hotel, a 16-acre truck stop, a
full-service recreational vehicle park, a service station, a mini-mart and other
related amenities.  In addition, Boomtown Reno offers a 35,000 square foot
family entertainment center featuring a dynamic motion theater, an indoor
miniature golf course, a restaurant and a replica of an 1800's Ferris Wheel.

                                       6

 
Boomtown Las Vegas began operations in May 1994 on a 56 acre site at the
interchange of Blue Diamond Road and Interstate 15, the principal thoroughfare
connecting Southern California to Las Vegas.  Boomtown Las Vegas is four miles
from the exit for Circus Circus, Excalibur, Luxor, and MGM.  Boomtown Las Vegas
includes a 30,000 square foot casino with 1,100 slot machines and 28 gaming
tables, 300 hotel rooms, a full-service recreational vehicle park, and two
restaurants.

On August 12, 1996, Boomtown, Blue Diamond Hotel and Casino, Inc. ("Blue
Diamond") (a wholly owned subsidiary of Boomtown, Inc., which leases and
operates Boomtown Las Vegas), Hollywood Park, IVAC (the owner/lessor of Boomtown
Las Vegas), Edward P. Roski, Jr. (a general partner of IVAC), and an affiliate
of Mr. Roski entered into the Blue Diamond Swap Agreement (the "Swap
Agreement"), pursuant to which the parties agreed that, immediately following
consummation of the Merger, Boomtown and Blue Diamond (or any subsidiary thereof
as set forth in the Swap Agreement) would exchange their entire interest in
Boomtown Las Vegas (including Boomtown's note receivable, from IVAC, in the
amount of $27,300,000) in exchange for, among other things, a $5,000,000
unsecured promissory note (the "First Note") and a $3,465,000 unsecured
promissory note (the "Second Note") (the "Blue Diamond Swap"), the termination
of the Boomtown Las Vegas lease, an estimated cash payment of $2,100,000, and
the release from liabilities and note obligations totaling approximately
$3,800,000 and from ongoing expenses of the Boomtown Las Vegas resort.  The
First Note has an interest rate equal to the prime rate plus 1.5% per annum and
provides for annual principal payments of $1,000,000 over five years.  The
Second Note has an interest rate equal to the prime rate plus 0.5% per annum and
provides for a payment of all principal on the third anniversary of the closing.

On August 12, 1996, Hollywood Park and Mr. Roski further entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Hollywood Park will concurrently with the
Blue Diamond Swap and the Merger, purchase 714,386 shares of Boomtown common
stock held by Mr. Roski for a purchase price of approximately $3,465,000 paid in
the form of a Hollywood Park unsecured promissory note having an interest rate
equal to the prime rate plus one percent per annum, and providing for five equal
annual principal payments after the closing.

Boomtown Biloxi, a limited partnership majority owned and controlled by
Boomtown, occupies nine acres on Biloxi, Mississippi's back bay.  Boomtown
Biloxi is located one-half mile from Interstate 110, the main highway connecting
Interstate 10 (the main thoroughfare connecting New Orleans and Mobile, Alabama)
and the Gulf of Mexico.  Boomtown Biloxi, began operations in July 1994, and
consists of a land-based facility that houses non-gaming operations and a 33,000
square foot casino constructed on a 400 x 100 foot barge permanently moored to
the land-based building.  The casino offers 985 slot machines, 42 table games
and other gaming amenities including restaurants, a western dance hall/cabaret
and a 20,000 square foot family entertainment center.

Boomtown New Orleans, a limited partnership majority owned and controlled by
Boomtown, began operations in August 1994 on a 50 acre site in Harvey,
Louisiana, located in Jefferson Parish, approximately ten miles from the French
Quarter of New Orleans.  Gaming operations are conducted from a 250 foot replica
of a paddle wheel riverboat, offering 865 slot machines and 51 table games in a
30,000 square foot casino.  The land-based facility is composed of an 88,000
square foot entertainment center and a western saloon/dance hall.  On November
5, 1996, there was a parish by parish vote regarding the continuation of gaming,
and the voters of Jefferson Parish overwhelmingly approved retaining riverboat
gaming.

Boomtown is actively seeking to expand its operations into jurisdictions that
have legalized casino gaming at sites that are near interstate highways or major
thoroughfares near major population or tourist centers.  Boomtown is currently
exploring a project in Switzerland County, Indiana through a joint venture with
Hilton Gaming Corporation.  The gaming license application for this project was
heard on August 19 and 20, 1996, and the decision to grant the gaming license
was deferred until a hearing scheduled for January 1997.

CRYSTAL PARK HOTEL AND CASINO   Crystal Park, California's first hotel and
casino, opened on October 25, 1996, with 110 gaming tables, with no limit on the
number of gaming tables that can be added, with approximately 282 hotel rooms,
including 41 VIP suites, a restaurant, gift shop, full service health spa with
massage center and outdoor pool, and a lobby sports bar and lounge.  The hotel
operates under a Radisson Hotels 

                                       7

 
International, Inc. ("Radisson") flag, under a 20 year License Agreement the
Company signed with Radisson on June 27, 1996. Hollywood Park can terminate the
License Agreement, at no cost to the Company, at the end of the third, fifth or
tenth year.

On July 14, 1995, the Company and Compton Entertainment, Inc. ("CEI") executed
an Amended and Restated Agreement Respecting Pyramid Casino (the "Crystal Park
Agreement") (Pyramid Casino was subsequently changed to Crystal Park Hotel and
Casino), finalizing the terms concerning the development, ownership and
operation of a card club in the city of Compton (the "City").  CEI entered into
an Amended and Restated Disposition and Development Agreement (the "DDA") with
the City to lease or purchase land located within the City as the card club
site.

Under the terms of the Crystal Park Agreement, on August 3, 1995, the Company
paid CEI $2,000,000 for the real property rights and assignment of the DDA to
Hollywood Park.  On August 3, 1995, the Company paid CEI an additional $500,000
to exercise the five year right to purchase CEI's City gaming license.  If at
the end of the five year term of the option to purchase the City gaming license,
Hollywood Park is not able to own and operate a card club at the Compton site,
CEI can elect to either negotiate a new lease, or acquire Hollywood Park's
rights to the card club site for a purchase price as determined by the
Agreement.  On October 24, 1996, CEI paid Hollywood Park approximately
$1,203,000, as reimbursement for non-construction related pre-opening costs
incurred on CEI's behalf by the Company. Upon the October 25, 1996 opening of
the card club, Hollywood Park paid CEI an additional $2,499,000, as required by
the Crystal Park Agreement.

As required by the DDA, on August 2, 1995, Hollywood Park paid approximately
$2,006,000 to the City to purchase the convention center to house the card club
operations and entered into a 50 year lease with the City for the hotel,
parking, and expansion parcels at the same site.  Initial improvements made by
Hollywood Park to construct, install and equip Crystal Park will be credited
against the annual base rent.  No cash rent  payments are expected to be made
until after the nineteenth year of the lease, or 2014.

Hollywood Park, Redwood Gaming LLC (controlled by the Edward J. DeBartolo
Family) and First Park Investments LLC (controlled by Leo Chu and Ivy Chu)
formed Crystal Park Hotel and Casino Development Co., LLC, an 88%, 8%, 4%
partnership, respectively, which built and now leases the Crystal Park property.

Current California law does not allow publicly traded companies, such as
Hollywood Park, to operate a card club (other than on the same property as the
race track); therefore, the Crystal Park LLC executed a 60 month lease with CEI.
Under the terms of the lease, as the landlord, Crystal Park LLC built and
furnished the card club for CEI to operate.  Crystal Park LLC is not responsible
for any segment of the daily operations.  Over the 60 month term, the fixed
monthly rent payments are as follows: $200,000 per month for months one through
six; $350,000 per month for months seven through twelve; and approximately
$759,000 per month for the balance of the lease.  If there is a change in
California law, allowing the Company to operate card clubs at sites other than
its race track property, Crystal Park LLC would operate the card club in
partnership with CEI, (the "Crystal Park Partnership") with Crystal Park LLC
owning 67% of the business.  Under the terms of the Crystal Park Partnership,
Crystal Park LLC would receive 90% of the distributable cash flow until it had
received its approximately $26,000,000 initial investment back, together with an
annualized 20% return on that investment.

OTHER CARD CLUB ACTIVITY The Company is a 50% partner with DeBartolo
Entertainment, in a 30 table Casino and Night Club to be located in Palm
Springs, California. Hollywood Park and DeBartolo Entertainment will be
landlords in a third party leasing arrangement. Any investment required for this
project would be modest and timing has not been finalized for development.
Without legislation to expand the types of gaming which could be offered at the
Palm Springs casino, this site is not expected to generate material income, due
to full casino gaming on nearby Indian Reservations.

The Company continues to have discussions with other card clubs as to possible
business combinations of mutual interest.

PRO FORMA RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following pro forma results of operations
were prepared under the assumption that the acquisition of PCM had occurred on
July 1, 1994, (PCM's inception). The following pro forma adjustments were made:
the elimination of lease rent revenue due to Hollywood Park from PCM and
concession sales made to PCM at acquisition; lease rent expense recorded by PCM;
other operating expenses including consulting fees; legal and audit services and
other miscellaneous duplicate expenses: and increases for amortization of the
excess purchase price allocated to goodwill, interest expense on the unpaid rent
and income taxes.

Pro forma earnings per share reflect the 136,008 shares of Hollywood Park common
stock issued to the former PCM shareholders and an estimated 134,194 shares of
common stock due to the former PCM shareholders, based on the closing market
price of Hollywood Park's common stock on September 30, 1996.

                                       9

 
RESTRICTED CASH  Restricted cash as of September 30, 1996, was for amounts due
to horsemen for purses, stakes and awards.  The balance as of December 31, 1995,
included approximately $2,482,000 related to the Class Action lawsuits and
approximately $644,000 related to amounts due to horsemen for purses, stakes and
awards.  In March 1996, amounts due for the Class Action lawsuits were placed in
an escrow account, according to the settlement agreement, and are no longer
reflected in the Company's accounts.

CASINO REVENUE AND PROMOTIONAL ALLOWANCES Casino gaming revenue consisted of
fees collected from patrons on a per seat or per hand played basis. Revenues in
the accompanying statements of operations exclude the retail value of food and
beverage provided to players on a complimentary basis. The estimated cost of
providing these promotional allowances during the nine months ended September
30, 1996, was $2,583,000. There were no comparable costs for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995.

ESTIMATES  Financial statements prepared according to generally accepted
accounting principles require the use of management estimates, including
estimates used to evaluate the recoverability of property, plant and equipment,
to determine the fair value of financial instruments, to account for the
valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and to determine litigation related
obligations.

EARNINGS PER SHARE  Primary earnings per share were computed by dividing net
income (loss) available to (allocated to) common shareholders (net income (loss)
less preferred dividend requirements) by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period, inclusive of the estimated future shares
of the Company's common stock to be issued to the former PCM shareholders.
Fully diluted per share amounts were similarly computed, but include the effect,
when dilutive, of the conversion of the convertible preferred shares and
exercise of stock options.

CASH FLOWS  Cash and cash equivalents consisted of certificates of deposit and
short term investments with maturities of 90 days or less.

STOCK REPURCHASE  On July 22, 1996, the Company announced its intention to
repurchase, and retire up to 2,000,000 shares of its common stock on the open
market or in negotiated transactions.  As of  November 13, 1996, the Company had
repurchased, and retired 222,300 common shares at a cost of approximately
$1,960,000.

RECLASSIFICATIONS  Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1995 balances
to be consistent with the 1996 financial statement presentation.

NOTE 2 -- SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS

As of September 30, 1996, short term investments consisted of corporate bonds
valued at $3,498,000.  The corporate bond portfolio consisted of bonds rated
from Ba2 to B3 by Moody's, and from BB+ to B- by Standard and Poors, with some
bonds not rated by either agency.  Investments in corporate bonds typically
carry a greater amount of principal risk than investments previously made by the
Company, and yield a correspondingly higher return.

As of September 30, 1996, corporate bond investments had a weighted average
maturity of 1.3 years, and because the Company reasonably expects to liquidate
this investment in its normal operating cycle this investment was classified as
short term.  This short term investment is held as available for sale, and was
recorded in the accompanying financial statements at fair value, determined by
the quoted market price.

For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, proceeds from the sale of
corporate bonds were approximately $6,785,000, all of which were reinvested,
with gross realized gains and losses of approximately $21,000 and $39,000,
respectively.  The net unrealized holding gain, as of September 30, 1996, was
$11,000.

 (b) These notes relate to Sunflower and are non-recourse to Hollywood
 Park. This table does not include the Crystal Park capital lease
 obligations discussed in Note 5.

NOTE 5 -- LONG TERM GAMING ASSETS

The Company purchased the convention center parcel at the Crystal Park site,
which was renovated to house the card club, and entered into a capital lease
with the city of Compton covering the adjoining hotel, surrounding parking lot
and expansion parcel. The capital lease was valued at approximately $13,741,000.
The lease was entered into on August 3, 1995, and has a term of up to 50 years.
The annual rent payments start at $600,000 and increase every fifth year until
year 46 when they stabilize at $2,850,000. Hollywood Park will receive a rent
payment credit equal to the costs incurred to renovate the card club and hotel.
No cash rent payments are expected to be made until the nineteenth year of the
lease, or 2014.

The balance of the long term gaming assets was related to the costs incurred for
the operating lease between Hollywood Park and CEI, and will be amortized over
the 60 month term of the lease.

NOTE 6 -- LONG TERM GAMING LIABILITIES

Long term gaming liabilities consisted of the Company's capital lease obligation
associated with the lease of the hotel, surrounding parking lot and the
expansion parcel from the city of Compton for Crystal Park. This 

                                       11

 
liability was reduced as the construction disbursements were made, and upon
submission of any purchase option payment.

NOTE 7 -- SUPPLEMENTAL BALANCE SHEET INFORMATION

In 1995, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121")
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
Be Disposed Of, was issued which established accounting standards for the
impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles, and goodwill
related to those assets. SFAS 121, which became effective for Hollywood Park in
the quarter ended March 31, 1996, addresses when impairment losses should be
recognized and how impairment losses should be measured. Whenever there are
recognized events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable, management reviews the asset for possible
impairment. In accordance with current accounting standards, management uses
estimated expected future net cash flows (undiscounted and excluding interest
costs, and grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash
flows that are as independent as possible of the cash flows of other asset
groups) to measure the recoverability of the asset. If the expected future net
cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset an impairment loss
would be recognized. An impairment loss would be measured as the amount by which
the carrying amount of the asset exceeded the fair value of the asset, with fair
value measured as the amount at which the asset could be bought or sold in a
current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation
sale. The estimation of expected future net cash flows is inherently uncertain
and relies to a considerable extent on assumptions regarding current and future
net cash flows and market conditions, and the availability of capital. If, in
future periods, there are changes in the estimates or assumptions incorporated
into the impairment review analysis, the changes could result in an adjustment
to the carrying amount of the asset, but at no time would previously recognized
impairment losses be restored.

NOTE 8 -- DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

Included in Administrative expenses were development costs of approximately
$466,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, and for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, there was a credit balance of approximately $197,000.
During the three months ended September 30, 1996, the Company was reimbursed for
development expenses of approximately $250,000, from a potential partner related
to an abandoned project.  Expenses incurred year-to-date primarily consisted of
costs related to the Inglewood site master plan and card clubs in California.

Included in Administrative expenses were development costs of approximately
$1,636,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, and approximately
$1,293,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1995.  Development expenses
for both the three and the nine months ended September 30, 1995, consisted
primarily of costs related to the environmental impact study for the proposed
stadium at Hollywood Park, and card clubs in California.

NOTE 9 -- ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, ("SFAS 123") Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, requires that the Company disclose additional
information about employee stock-based compensation plans.  The objective of
SFAS 123 is to estimate the fair value, based on the stock price at the grant
date, of the Company's stock options to which employees become entitled when
they have rendered the requisite service and satisfied any other conditions
necessary to earn the right to benefit from the stock options.  The fair market
value of a stock option is to be estimated using an option-pricing model that
takes into account, as of the grant date, the exercise price and expected life
of the option, the current price of the underlying stock and its expected
volatility, expected dividends on the stock and the risk-free interest rate for
the expected term of the options.

The Company has calculated the pro forma financial results as required under
SFAS 123 and noted that the impact on net loss for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995 was immaterial.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the three months ended
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 30, 1995
- ------------------


The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
included the results of Hollywood Park operating all aspects of the Casino,
including the gaming floors, whereas, during the three months ended September
30, 1995, the Company leased the gaming floor activities to PCM for a fixed
monthly rent, and directly operated all other aspects of the business. The
results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 1996, excluded
the results of operations for Sunflower, due to Sunflower's May 17, 1996, filing
for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy code. Sunflower's results
of operations are included for the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Total revenues increased by $3,652,000, or 13.7%, during the three months ended
September 30, 1996, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 1995.
Pari-mutuel commissions decreased by $1,180,000, or 11.7%, primarily due to
three fewer live race days at Hollywood Park during the three months ended
September 30, 1996, as compared to the same period in 1995.  Gaming - Casino
revenues of $13,114,000 were generated from the gaming floor activities, which
Hollywood Park acquired from PCM on November 17, 1995.  While there are no
comparable gaming floor revenues in the 1995 results of operations, during the
three months ended September 30, 1995, the Company recorded Lease - Casino
revenue of $5,394,000, and concession sales to PCM of approximately $649,000.
Concession sales decreased by $1,788,000, or 39.3%, with $777,000 of the decline
attributable to the exclusion of Sunflower's 1996 concession sales, with the
remainder primarily due to the 1995 sales to the former Casino lessee (as
previously mentioned), with no corresponding sales in the 1996 operating
results.

Total operating expenses increased by $1,966,000, or 8.0%, for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the three months ended September 30,
1995.  Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
included the Casino gaming floor expenses, with no corresponding expenses in the
operating results for the three months ended September 30, 1995.  Also,
Sunflower's operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1996,
are not included in the operating results, though these expenses are included in
the operating results for the three months ended September 30, 1995.  Salaries,
wages and employee benefits increased by $3,464,000, or 37.3%, primarily because
of wages and benefits associated with the gaming floor staff, for which there
are no comparable expenses in the 1995 operating results.  Operations of
facilities costs decreased by $504,000, or 19.9%, primarily due to the exclusion
of Sunflower's expenses in the 1996 operating results.  Cost of concession sales
decreased by $1,480,000, or 24.5%, with $682,000 of the decrease related to the
exclusion of Sunflower's 1996 operating expenses, with the remainder primarily
due to cost saving measures implemented at the Hollywood Park race track and
Casino.  Professional services increased by $424,000, or 37.3%, due primarily to
increased legal expenses.  

                                       13

 
Utilities decreased by $264,000, or 17.7%, primarily due to the exclusion of
Sunflower's 1996 operating expenses. Marketing costs increased by $259,000, or
24.8%, mainly due to Casino marketing costs, offset by the exclusion of
Sunflower's 1996 marketing expenses. Included in the 1995 expenses was
$5,627,000 for the lawsuit settlement, with no corresponding expense in the 1996
results of operations.

Depreciation and amortization decreased by $326,000, or 11.5%, primarily due to
the exclusion of Sunflower's 1996 depreciation and amortization expense, netted
against the amortization of the goodwill associated with the November 17, 1995,
PCM acquisition. Interest expense decreased by $938,000, or 97.9%, due entirely
to the exclusion of Sunflower's 1996 interest expense.

Income tax expense increased by $2,337,000 due to pre-tax income being generated
during the three months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to a pre-tax loss
generated during the three months ended September 30, 1995, and an anticipated
slightly higher effective tax rate in 1996.

Nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared to the nine months ended
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
September 30, 1995
- ------------------

The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, included
the results of Hollywood Park operating all aspects of the Casino, including the
gaming floors whereas, during the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the
Company leased the gaming floor activities to PCM for a fixed monthly rent, and
directly operated all other aspects of the business. The results of operations
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, included Sunflower's results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996, and due to Sunflower's May
17, 1996, filing for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code,
excluded Sunflower's results of operations for the six months ended September
30, 1996. Sunflower's results of operations are included in the financial
statements for the entire nine months ended September 30, 1995.

Total revenues increased by $10,648,000, or 11.3%, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995.
Lease and management fee - Sunflower decreased by $3,273,000, or 75.3%, due to
the exclusion of Sunflower's operating results for the six months ended
September 30, 1996.  Gaming - Casino revenues of $37,917,000 were generated from
the gaming floor activities, which Hollywood Park acquired from PCM on November
17, 1995.  While there are no comparable gaming floor revenues in the 1995
financial results, during the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Company
recorded Lease - Casino revenues of $18,064,000, and concession sales to PCM of
approximately $2,415,000.  Admissions, programs and other racing income declined
by $716,000, or 5.5%, primarily related to the exclusion of Sunflower's
operating results for the six months ended September 30, 1996.  Concession sales
decreased by $4,956,000, or 32.3%, with $1,561,000, or 31.5%, of the decline
attributable to the exclusion of Sunflower's concession sales for the six months
ended September 30, 1996, with the remaining decrease primarily related to the
fact that the 1995 results included sales to PCM, the former gaming floor lessee
(as previously mentioned), with no corresponding concession sales in the 1996
revenues.

Total operating expenses, inclusive of Casino gaming floor expenses, (with no
corresponding gaming floor operating expenses in the 1995 results of operations)
and with the 1996 financial results exclusive of Sunflower's operating expense
for the six months ended September 30, 1996, increased by $10,896,000, or 14.0%,
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 1995.  Salaries wages and employee benefits increased by
$11,641,000, or 39.2%, primarily because of wages and benefits associated with
the gaming floor staff, for which there are no corresponding expenses in the
results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1995.  Operations
of facilities costs decreased by $1,408,000, or 18.0%, primarily a result of the
exclusion of Sunflower's expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1996.
Cost of concession sales decreased by $4,196,000, or 21.5%, primarily due to the
exclusion of Sunflower's expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1996,
and staff reductions at the Casino.  Professional services increased by
$472,000, or 8.3%, primarily due to gaming floor costs at the Casino, for which
there are no corresponding costs in the 1995 operating expenses.  Utilities
costs decreased by $440,000, or 12.1%, primarily because of the exclusion of
Sunflower's expenses for the six months ended September 30, 1996.  Marketing
costs increased by $1,259,000, or 33.8%, primarily due to 

                                       14

 
Casino marketing costs. Administrative costs increased by $3,546,000, or 51.3%,
primarily a result of costs associated with the operation of the gaming floors,
including the city of Inglewood monthly gaming license fees. Included in the
1995 results of operations was $5,627,000 of expenses related to the lawsuit
settlement with no corresponding expense in 1996.

Depreciation and amortization costs decreased by $580,000, or 6.8%, primarily
due to the exclusion of Sunflower's expense for the six months ended September
30, 1996, netted against the amortization of the goodwill associated with the
November 17, 1995, PCM acquisition. Interest expense decreased by $1,968,000, or
68.2%, due to the exclusion of Sunflower's interest expense for the six months
ended September 30, 1996.

Income tax expense increased by $2,667,000, due to higher pre-tax income in 1996
(excluding the write-off of the investment in Sunflower) and an anticipated
higher effective tax rate in 1996.

                        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Hollywood Park's principal source of liquidity at September 30, 1996, was cash
and cash equivalents of approximately $15,683,000. Cash and cash equivalent
decreased by $6,723,000, during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, as
compared to cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 1995, primarily a
result of Crystal Park construction disbursements, payment of secured notes
payable, and the payment of the convertible preferred dividends, netted against
cash provided by operating activities, the maturity of short term investments,
the return of the Company's workers' compensation self-insurance cash deposit,
and capital contributions from the Crystal Park LLC minority interest partners.
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $16,333,000 during the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, as compared to cash and cash equivalents as of December 31,
1994, primarily due to disbursements for land acquisitions, debt service
payments on secured and unsecured loan facilities, and payment of convertible
preferred dividends.

HOLLYWOOD PARK  As a condition of the April 23, 1996, Merger Agreement with
Boomtown, Hollywood Park must secure adequate funding to repurchase Boomtown's
First Mortgage notes (if required to be redeemed) and at least $60,000,000 to
fund various gaming projects; the Company has appointed Bank of America National
Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America") to act as lead bank in
securing a credit facility of up to $225,000,000.

On April 14, 1995, the Company executed an unsecured loan facility of up to
$75,000,000 with Bank of America (the "Business Loan Agreement").  The loan
facility consists of a $60,000,000 line of credit (the "Line of Credit") and a
$15,000,000 revolver (the "Revolver").  The Business Loan agreement has been
amended four times to, among other matters, extend the date for drawing down on
the Line of Credit to November 15, 1996, and to adjust the tangible net worth
covenant requirement at December 31, 1996.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, Hollywood Park did not draw any
funds under its credit facilities with Bank of America, except for the May 1,
1996, issuance of a standby letter of credit, in the amount of $2,617,000, as
security for the Company's workers' compensation self-insurance program with the
state of California.

The Line of Credit is an interest only, revolving facility, under which the
Company may borrow, pay and reborrow principal amounts without penalty.  Per
Amendment Four to the Business Loan Agreement the Line of Credit terminates as
of November 15, 1996, and the Company must repay amounts then outstanding under
the Line of Credit in eighty-four equal monthly installments starting from
December 15, 1996.  The Company is in negotiations with Bank of America to
extend the termination date of the Line of Credit to June 30, 1997.  The Line of
Credit bears interest, at the option of the Company, at Bank of America's prime
rate plus 0.25%, or the offshore rate plus 2.0%, and the Company may further
elect an agreed upon fixed rate.

The Revolver, inclusive of a within line facility for standby letters of credit
of up to a maximum of $5,000,000, is available during the two years ending May
1, 1997, during which the Company can borrow, pay and 

                                       15

 
reborrow principal amounts without penalty. The Revolver bears interest, at the
option of the Company, at Bank of America's prime rate or the offshore rate plus
1.75%, and the Company may further elect an agreed upon fixed rate.

As of March 31, 1996, and September 30, 1996, primarily due to a greater than
anticipated percentage ownership in the Crystal Park LLC (as discussed below),
the Company did not meet the quick assets to current liabilities covenant.  Bank
of America has waived compliance with this covenant, for the quarter ended March
31, 1996, and  September 30, 1996.

Capital expenditures of $17,969,000, for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, were primarily related to construction of Crystal Park.  Hollywood Park
increased its ownership interest in the Crystal Park LLC to 88% from 40%;
therefore; the Company is responsible for a proportionately greater amount of
the construction costs.

On September 3, 1996, the Company paid $3,358,000, on the secured non-interest
bearing promissory note, related to the October 27, 1995, purchase of 37.33
acres of land adjacent to the Inglewood property.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company paid dividends of
$1,443,000 on its convertible preferred stock.  On August 15, 1996, May 15,
1996, and February 15, 1996, the Company paid dividends of $481,000,
respectively, representing $17.50 per share (or $0.175 per depositary share).
On October 1, 1996, the Company declared its regular quarterly preferred
dividend of $481,000, payable on November 15, 1996.  Dividends of $1,443,000
were paid during the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

As of January 1, 1996, shares of the convertible preferred stock can be
converted into common stock at the option of the Company.  The Company may
exercise this option, only if, among other requirements, for 20 trading days,
within any period of 30 consecutive trading days, the closing price of the
Company's common stock exceeds $15.00, subject to adjustments in certain
circumstances.  The conversion price is equal to 83.33 common shares for each
convertible preferred share.  The Company anticipates converting the convertible
preferred stock into common stock at the earliest possible date.

In 1995, the Company began investing in corporate bonds, with approximately
$3,498,000 invested as of September 30, 1996, with Moody's ratings of Ba2 to B3
and Standard and Poors ratings of BB+ to B-, though some of the bonds are not
rated by either agency.  Investments in corporate bonds carry a greater amount
of principal risk than investments historically made by the Company, and yield a
correspondingly higher return.  The corporate bond investments, as of September
30, 1996, had a weighted average maturity of 1.3 years, and because the Company
reasonably expects to liquidate this investment in its normal operating cycle
this investment was classified as short term.  This short term investment is
held as available for sale, and was recorded in the accompanying financial
statements at fair value, determined by the quoted market price.

SUNFLOWER  On March 24, 1994, an Amended and Restated Credit and Security
Agreement (the "Senior Credit") was executed between Sunflower and five banks
(the "Banks") in connection with the Company's acquisition of Sunflower.  The
Senior Credit is non-recourse to Hollywood Park, except for the Company's
guarantee of the interest payments required under the Standstill Agreement.  The
guarantee was terminated without any payments by the Company, by reason of the
termination of the Standstill Agreement.  As of September 30, 1996, the Senior
Credit had an outstanding balance of $28,667,000.

In December 1994, Sunflower executed a promissory note to Hollywood Park,
allowing for the advancement of up to $3,000,000, for the payment of its Senior
Credit obligations.  In 1995, Hollywood Park advanced $2,500,000 to Sunflower,
which along with accrued interest is subordinated to the Senior Credit
obligations.

In October 1995, Sunflower and the Banks executed a Standstill Agreement, which
among other things, provided for the extension of the Senior Credit maturity.
The Standstill Agreement provided for the deferral of 100% of the principal
payments and 50% of the interest payments due under the Senior Credit from April
1995 

                                       16

 
through the termination date of the Standstill Agreement. The Standstill
Agreement terminated on May 2, 1996, because the Kansas Legislature concluded
its 1996 session without passing legislation that would have permitted slot
machines or other casino gaming at Kansas race tracks, including Sunflower. On
May 17, 1996, Sunflower filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code.

GENERAL Hollywood Park is continually evaluating future growth opportunities in
the gaming, sports and entertainment industries. The Company expects that
funding for growth opportunities, dividend requirements on the convertible
preferred stock, payments on notes payable or capital expenditure needs will
come from existing cash balances, cash generated from operating activities and
borrowings from the credit facilities. In the opinion of management, these
resources will be sufficient to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements
for the foreseeable future (and in any event for at least the next twelve
months). In the event that the Merger with Boomtown is consummated, Hollywood
Park believes that the proposed $225,000,000 credit facility will be sufficient
to meet Hollywood Park's and Boomtown's anticipated cash requirements for the
foreseeable future (and in any event, for at least the twelve months following
consummation of the Merger).

period January 1 through May 7 and resumed live racing on September 28 and will
run through December 31. Turf Paradise operates as a simulcast facility for

                                       21

 
Arizona's Prescott Downs during the period May 24 through September 2. In 1995,
Turf Paradise raced live from January 1 through May 22, operated as a simulcast
facility for the period May 26 through September 4, and resumed live racing on
September 30 running through December 31. Along with running live thoroughbred
races, Turf Paradise offers two quarter horse races a day during the first three
months of the live meet (September through November) and a limited number of
Arabian races each spring. Turf Paradise also typically accepts simulcast
signals during live racing on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and operates as a
simulcast facility during the two dark days (days without live racing during the
live race meet) of each week during the live on-track racing season.
