NYRA content no longer available on TwinSpires
by Pat McKenna
The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) today announced that a contractual impasse between NYRA and TwinSpires, the advance deposit wagering platform owned and operated by Churchill Downs, Inc., has resulted in the elimination of all NYRA content from TwinSpires effective immediately.
Pending a contractual resolution between the two parties, pari-mutuel wagering, live video and race replays from the summer meet at Saratoga Race Course will be unavailable to TwinSpires customers.
NYRA is seeking financial terms from TwinSpires similar to those currently in place with all national advance deposit wagering platforms offering NYRA content.
In its role as a not-for-profit corporation franchised by New York State, NYRA’s mission is to conduct world-class racing for the benefit of the state’s economy while growing the sport and creating opportunities for horsemen and breeders to compete for robust purses throughout the year.
To fulfill those goals, NYRA will continue negotiations with TwinSpires to increase funds flowing to the sport and its stakeholders in New York.
