Hawthorne facing bankruptcy as many folks here already know. Prior to the bankruptcy filing, Fairmount had many more applications for stalls this year (no surprise as likely Chicago folks who were fleeing the scene).

Today, Twin Spires is operating in Missouri again and I'm told operating even in Texas now. The folks at Fairmount are going to lose dollars through their windows if they don't start planning on taking their game up a notch to attract Missouri residents away from betting through TS even if they are sitting in the First Turn Cafe or the "Bumblebee Room" as one spot is affectionately known. Hopefully other platforms open in Missouri as well.

It is unclear if the premise for allowing Missouri residents to use TwinSpires is pursuant to permission from the gaming commission under the recent legalization of Sports Betting or from their victory in Michigan. Either way, MO Money Headed to CDI.
