Sportech Racing and Digital, a division of Sportech PLC, has been selected by Kentucky horserace track, Ellis Park as its new pari-mutuel betting technologies and services provider.
This agreement follows another new tote services contract signed earlier this year with Kentucky Downs (see previous report).
As with Kentucky Downs, Sportech will deliver betting services to Ellis Park via its Quantum System operated from Sportech’s Global Quantum Data and Operations Center.
Patrons of Ellis Park will enjoy an upgrade in the betting technologies available to them, including Sportech’s new BetJet SL 2.5 self-service terminals and the Sportech Tablet for wireless account betting.
Ellis Park’s President, Ron Geary, said: “We evaluated our options and were impressed with Sportech Racing and Digital’s technology, their track record, and their independence. We are looking forward to a smooth transition to the new technologies and to offering our players an overall improved betting experience.”
