A Kentucky House vote on sports betting legislation is anticipated this week. The bill won unanimous approval in a House committee last week. One of the interested onlookers was Kentucky Thoroughbred Association Executive Director Chauncey Morris. Morris said those in the horse racing business view sports wagering on college and professional sports as complimentary.
“There’s not a finite amount of discretionary income in the Commonwealth or in the United States. And so, we know that folks that are legally betting on horse racing also want to legally bet on other professional and amateur sports,” said Morris.
