AMTOTE AND PARIMAX PEN NEW MULTI-YEAR AGREEMENT WITH RED MILE
LEADING PRODUCTS FROM TOP TECH PROVIDER COMBINE TO RENEW DEAL AROUND HISTORICAL HORSE RACING (HHR) BETTING TERMINALS AT KEY KENTUCKY SITE
PariMAX Holdings, LLC (“PariMAX”), and AmTote International, Inc. (“AmTote”), key divisions of leading North American technology provider 1/ST TECHNOLOGY, have entered into a multi-year agreement with KRM Wagering, LLC (“Red Mile”), a gaming joint venture between Keeneland and The Red Mile racing associations.
This strategic partnership sees both parties put their combined shoulders to the wheel around KRM Wagering’s progressive historical horse racing (HHR) wagering terminals at its Red Mile Gaming & Racing facility in Lexington, Kentucky. The new agreement continues a longstanding relationship with KRM that started with its successful launch of HHR operations back in 2015 to improve fan engagement and return value to horse racing stakeholders in an increasingly competitive wagering and entertainment market.
Since then, the Red Mile facility has become popular with racegoers for both its historical racing terminals, as well as traditional live and simulcast wagering solutions. Customers can choose to play on terminals which draw from a deep well of historical racing data, statistics and archive video footage to produce pre-recorded races in a format appealing to gaming-oriented consumers while corresponding with the fair and familiar pari-mutuel betting model.
Before and during the pandemic, by delivering these quick-fire on-demand betting opportunities, HHR proved pivotal to maintaining local employment and sustaining revenues for increased purse levels to help keep Kentucky horse racing competitive with other major racing states. Red Mile remains the iconic home of the Kentucky Futurity, one of the three jewels in Trotting’s Triple Crown, fusing a proud racing heritage with state-of-the-art simulcasting and pari-mutuel HHR gaming terminals which have bolstered this venue as a premier retail and entertainment destination throughout the year.
PariMAX and AmTote are market-leading products from 1/ST TECHNOLOGY, racing’s largest and most innovative gaming technology company, and the leading wagering technology force in North America.
Keith Johnson, Chief Revenue Officer at 1/ST TECHNOLOGY – PariMAX & AmTote, said: “1/ST TECHNOLOGY, with its PariMAX and AmTote business units, is thrilled to extend its relationship with Red Mile. This new agreement allows PariMAX to provide its continuing evolution of HHR products, delivering even more appealing and fully pari-mutuel innovative wagering experiences on HHR content, for the benefit of Red Mile, the Kentucky horse racing industry, and the US horse racing industry as a whole.“
Shannon Cobb, Chief Financial & Operating Officer at Red Mile Gaming & Racing, added: “The Red Mile is happy to enter into the next phase of its relationship with PariMAX and AmTote with this latest agreement. PariMAX continues to deliver unique and innovative HHR products and features that our patrons demonstrably enjoy, and this agreement will just expand upon that for the years to come.”
1/ST TECHNOLOGY’s world-class products, led by AmTote and PariMAX, rank among the most trusted names across gaming, technology, horse and greyhound racing. AmTote’s technology and services already play host to the majority of racetrack operators in North America – and are currently in operation at Santa Anita Park, Gulfstream Park, Saratoga Race Course, Belmont Park, Aqueduct and Woodbine, alongside many others, processing more than $18 billion in pari-mutuel and fixed-odds wagering around the world each year.

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.
Let me be perfectly clear
Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.
Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.
We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.
We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.
To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.
Sincerely
Matt Zamroźniak
Chief Executive Officer
Prime Skill Games Inc.
