Racing Officials to Offer Model Rules for Sports Betting

The Association of Racing Commissioners International says it will consider expanding its model rules for horse and greyhound racing to include guidelines for sports betting after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a federal ban on sports betting in the U.S. The group’s Model Rules Committee will work on creating a set of model regulations based upon the existing sports betting rules currently in place in Nevada. The ARCI is an umbrella group that promulgates model racing rules it encourages members to adopt.
