Hoosier Park L.P.
Hoosier Park opened its doors as the first pari-mutuel horse racing facility in the state of Indiana Sept. 1, 1994. The route to legalizing pari-mutuel racing stems back to Nov. 5, 1968 when a statewide advisory referendum on pari-mutuel wagering was conducted. The referendum failed at the state level, but the Madison County voters supported the measure by a slim margin.
Madison County continued its support of pari-mutuel wagering through the next two decades, and pari-mutuel gambling was made legal in the General Assembly March 16, 1989. Anderson became the first city in the state to submit an application for a pari-mutuel racetrack Oct. 31, 1990.
