Where to bet on the Kentucky Derby in Michigan
Horse racing markets are not available on any of the online sportsbook apps in Michigan.
In 1933, Michigan lawmakers granted their approval for pari-mutuel betting on horse racing, establishing a unique set of regulations for this form of gambling. The enactment of The Horse Racing Law of 1995 further expanded the horizons by enabling Michigan racetracks to organize simulcast racing events from various locations across North America. Notably, the law underwent modification in December 2019, permitting online horse betting within the state.
Bettors can now place bets on horse racing in Michigan racetracks both online and through licensed horse betting operators via advance deposit wagering.
