Caesars Sportsbook Partners with Historic Racetracks Keeneland and Red Mile Ahead of Sports Betting’s Launch in Kentucky
Legalized sports wagering is coming to Kentucky and Caesars Sportsbook, the sports wagering platform for Caesars Entertainment Inc., announced agreements with Keeneland and Red Mile Gaming & Racing in Lexington. The agreements grant the operator market access to offer legalized mobile sports wagering in Kentucky and include plans to open Central Kentucky’s only brick-and-mortar retail sportsbook locations, subject to regulatory approvals from the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission.
“Keeneland and Red Mile are iconic horse racing venues with an important legacy in the state of Kentucky. Customers in the region have long enjoyed our world-class Caesars destinations and, most recently, our horse racing wagering app, Caesars Racebook. Working with these historic institutions provides an unmatched opportunity to reach sports and racing fans in the state, and we look forward to working with the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission as we prepare to launch later this year,” said Eric Hession, President of Caesars Digital, said.
“Keeneland’s venture with Caesars Sportsbook holds exciting potential and furthers our mission to introduce new audiences to horse racing. Caesars is a globally respected brand, and we value their commitment to racing and their expertise in sports wagering,” said Keeneland President and CEO Shannon Arvin.
“At Red Mile Gaming & Racing we are excited to continue introducing this historic harness track to new audiences. Opportunities with sports wagering on site, added to live racing, simulcasting, and HHR Games accomplish goals we have worked toward for several years. Our relationships with Keeneland and Caesars in this venture could not be more valued,” said Red Mile Chief Operating Officer Shannon Cobb.
As part of this relationship, Caesars Sportsbook will be an official sports betting partner of Keeneland and Red Mile and offer on-track hospitality and VIP experiences at both racetracks to members of the industry-leading customer loyalty program, Caesars Rewards. In addition, Caesars Sportsbook will operate an on-premise retail sportsbook at Red Mile, subject to regulatory approvals, so guests can enjoy the excitement of sports betting, gaming, and simulcasting all under one roof.
When legalized sports wagering launches in Kentucky, Caesars Sportsbook customers above the age of 21 can tie the excitement of sports betting to unmatched rewards via Caesars Rewards. Every wager placed rewards the bettor with Tier Credits for status and Reward Credits that can be used to unlock world-class Caesars Rewards experiences and discounted getaways at Caesars Entertainment destinations across the US.

1X2 Network launches iCasino content in West Virginia with Rush Street, Caesars and Fanatics
1X2 Network has launched in West Virginia, marking its second regulated US market. The supplier said a first set of games went live on 3 June 2026 with Rush Street, Caesars Entertainment and Fanatics Casino.
The company entered North America in Michigan two years ago and said it is expanding US distribution off the back of performance there. 1X2 Network did not disclose commercial terms or rollout timelines by operator.
Among the initial titles going live in West Virginia are 3 Hot Chilli Peppers and 3 Porky Banks Hold and Win. The company said both games have been “ranked as top performers in North America” and are aimed at West Virginia’s “core 30-39 year old iGaming demographic.”
Kevin Reid, CEO at 1X2 Network, said: “Buoyed by the performance of our top tier titles in Michigan, we felt the time was right to step up our US expansion plans, and in Rush Street, Caesars Entertainment and Fanatics Casino, we couldn’t think of three better operators to debut our launch into West Virginia.
“Having already worked with these brands in the Great Lakes State, we’re confident that games like 3 Hot Chilli Peppers and 3 Porky Banks Hold and Win will deliver the same great results for them in West Virginia. We also have deals in the pipeline to go live with a number of other big-name operators which will further cement our presence in North America.”

1X2 Network
1X2 Network officially launches in West Virginia
Market-leading software provider accelerates US expansion plans as fan favourite games go live in the Mountain State with Rush Street, Caesars Entertainment and Fanatics Casino.
1X2 Network, the rapidly-expanding software provider and aggregator known in the industry for its top performing icasino content, has announced it has officially entered its second US state after launching a first set of games with Rush Street, Caesars Entertainment and Fanatics Casino.
Having made its North American debut in Michigan two years ago, 1X2 Network has already established a strong rapport with a number of US operators due to the strong performance of its titles, and this will undoubtedly help the provider get off to a winning start in the Mountain State.
Among the first wave of releases to feature at Rush Street, Caesars and Fanatics will be 3 Hot Chilli Peppers and 3 Porky Banks Hold and Win, which have already been ranked as top performers in North America, with both games being perfectly tailored to West Virginia’s core 30-39 year old iGaming demographic.
Moving forward, 1X2 Network will continue launching titles from its 2026 roadmap on both platforms to bring West Virginia players an even greater choice of quality iCasino content, and the provider also has plans to launch with several more big-name brands in the state before the year is out.
With the WV entry being another major milestone for 1X2 Network’s expansion in North America, the provider will continue to develop games that resonate with players across the US and Canada, and is already targeting New Jersey, Connecticut and Alberta as potential new markets in future.
Kevin Reid, CEO at 1X2 Network, said: “Buoyed by the performance of our top tier titles in Michigan, we felt the time was right to step up our US expansion plans, and in Rush Street, Caesars Entertainment and Fanatics Casino, we couldn’t think of three better operators to debut our launch into West Virginia.
“Having already worked with these brands in the Great Lakes State, we’re confident that games like 3 Hot Chilli Peppers and 3 Porky Banks Hold and Win will deliver the same great results for them in West Virginia.
