Oaklawn will also continue to offer Kambi’s retail sportsbook within its Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort. Via a partnership with operator Churchill Downs Incorporated, Kambi has provided Oaklawn with its retail sportsbook since 2021, with the latest deal replacing this agreement to see Kambi contract direct with Oaklawn for an extended period.
In a press release, the company announced that Oaklawn plans to expand its sports betting retail operations, “creating an exciting experience for its patrons during the Thoroughbred races.”
Kristian Nylén, Kambi Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, said: “We’re very excited to strengthen our relationship with Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort and imminently extend our partnership into the mobile space. The combination of Kambi’s advanced technology and Oaklawn’s reputation as one of the premier Thoroughbred tracks and casinos in the US makes this an enticing sports betting proposition.”
