PER CURIAM.
Harbor Venture, Inc., Horseshoe Casinos, L.L.C., and Missouri River Equities,
Inc. appeal the district court's ruling rejecting their contention that a gambling
enterprise is permitted on real estate governed by the terms of a 1976 consent decree.
After de novo review, we are satisfied the district court correctly interpreted the
consent decree and the record supports the district court's ruling. Because a
comprehensive opinion in this case would lack precedential value, we affirm for the
reasons set forth in the district court's well-reasoned opinion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
