“Can a mid-size Ohio racino expand its gaming and entertainment footprint profitably by layering sports betting and loyalty programs onto a legacy harness racing and slots operation?”
Miami Valley Gaming was founded in 2012 as a joint venture between Churchill Downs Incorporated and Delaware North to operate a racino (combined racetrack and casino) in Lebanon, Ohio. The property offers video lottery terminals, harness racing, dining, and entertainment. In 2023, the company expanded into retail sports betting by partnering with Kambi Group for on-property sportsbook technology, reflecting broader Ohio gaming market expansion following sports betting legalization.
