Revolutionary Racing Partners with Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians

Published

on

 

The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission has voted unanimously to approve new partners in the racetrack and equestrian center set to be built in eastern Kentucky by Revolutionary Racing.

The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians will serve as a financial partner to Revolutionary Racing Kentucky, while Keeneland Association will also be a partner. Both bring deep experience in racing and project development to the existing leadership team.

Commissioners also gave the green light to the group’s first week of quarter horse races, set for April 1-6, 2023. The races will take place at The Red Mile in Lexington, while the new Boyd County track is under construction.

“We appreciate the support the KHRC has shown for this project throughout this process. We are excited to welcome our new partners and even more excited about the positive impact we can make in eastern Kentucky,” Larry Lucas, Chairman of Revolutionary Racing Kentucky, said.

Revolutionary Racing Kentucky will invest $55 million to build a world-class quarter horse track, equestrian center and entertainment complex in Ashland, Kentucky.

In addition to hundreds of union construction jobs, it is expected to create more than 200 good-paying, full-time positions. Operating year-round with shows and competitions, it is projected to generate nearly $1 million in new annual tax revenues.

Serving as Kentucky’s only track dedicated to quarter horses, it will feature a 660-yard sprint track and daily purses of up to $500,000, placing it among the nation’s leading quarter horse tracks. Plans call for the track to host its first race in 2024.

The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians will make their investment through EBCI Holdings, a commercial gaming entity created in December 2020 to diversify the North Carolina-based tribe’s economic interests. Among the group’s holdings are casinos, as well as a gaming technology incubator.

“We couldn’t have found a better group to partner with or a better project to support. We have a long-term commitment to community reinvestment and providing best-in-class entertainment offerings to underserved markets. This world-class project aligns perfectly with that commitment,” Richard Sneed, Principal Chief of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, said.

Keeneland brings a storied racing tradition to the team, as its Lexington-based track is considered one of North America’s premier operations. The company’s founder, Jack Keene, even opened and operated Raceland, a track in nearby Greenup County, in the 1920s. Since 2014, Keeneland has also partnered with The Red Mile on their historical horse racing facility in Lexington.

“Keeneland is excited to partner with Revolutionary Racing Kentucky on this initiative, which continues our mission to strengthen the state’s vital horse industry. Additionally, this project will positively impact the local community and stimulate economic growth in the region,” Keeneland President and CEO Shannon Arvin said.
