Following the renaming of Hollywood Park to Betfair Hollywood Park would now be an appropriate time for an update to UK Betfair customers who bet on US Racing on how developments in the USA will impact us both now and in the future?

Apologies if this has been communicated in the past, but presumably I am not the only one who would like confirmation on how things are intended to be moving forwards.

Many thanks.

Surely it has been an elementary mistake that BF did not put markets up for Hollywood Park on its opening day (unless I cannot find them)?

Also...I thought the whole purpose of the naming rights/investing in Hollywood Park was that the CA lawmakers were due to vote on allowing exchange betting for CA residents soon? Are the tracks not being covered until that goes through or is there another reason?

But users in the USA can't use betfair?

At the moment.

If California was to allow the use of betting exchanges, people in that state would be permitted to use BF. Not sure how likely this is, but I would thought the fact that BF has invested in HollyP would indicate there is some likelihood - otherwise what was the point in investing?
