Sandy's Racing & Gaming

The state will become the sixth state where sports betting will be available on the bet365 in the US, when online wagering goes live there at the end of September.

Sandy’s Racing & Gaming, a US$75m quarter horse racetrack and entertainment facility, remains under construction but is set to open this autumn.

It is a joint venture between Revolutionary Racing Kentucky and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.
