A confidential report on the six former Aqueduct race track contract bidders had been released to the New York Times, which sought the document through a Freedom of Information Act request, raising more questions over the legitimacy of Aqueduct Entertainment Group’s selection. The document, prepared by the state Division of Lottery, shows a basic assessment of the six candidates for the Ozone Park casino and race track project, including the controversial pick, the AEG. The assessment, which Governor David Paterson’s communications director said was conducted early in the process, ranks candidates in 11 different criteria, giving each scores of “positive,” “neutral” or “negative.” In the report, AEG garnered four “positive,” three “neutral,” and four “negative” scores. Early pack leader, SL Green-Hard Rock, meanwhile, nabbed seven “positive,” four “neutral” and zero “negative” scores.
