The Kentucky House of Representatives passed Senate Bill 120 Friday to legalize historical horse racing machines, a small win in the battle for the Oak Grove Racing, Gaming & Hotel in Christian County. The bill previously passed the state senate and now goes to Gov. Andy Beshearâs desk.
âSB 120 ensures that the facilities will remain open and resume operations as they are.â said Christian County Chamber of Commerce CEO Kelli Pendleton.
Pendleton testified at the Senate Licensing and Occupations hearing on Feb. 4 in support of the bill.
Last year, the Supreme Court of Kentucky unanimously ruled that the various forms of wagering on historical horse racing didnât meet the stateâs standards of pari-mutuel wagering. Some historical racing facilities closed after the ruling, but the facility in Oak Grove remained open.
