Initial Target Locations
Las Vegas is a the largest targeted pari-mutuel racing opportunity for the State of Nevada, less than 2 hours from Laughlin.
​
Laughlin is located in the southernmost tip of Nevada, along the Colorado River, where Nevada, California, and Arizona meet. Training from October through April is quite comfortable.
​
Reno is expected to be a complimentary site to the Cal Expo track in California, approximately 2.5 hours away. Land acquisition discussions are under way and finalization is dependent on many factors.
​
Pahrump is the largest town in Nye county which lies near the Nevada-California border and is approximately 1.25 hours from Las Vegas. Pahrump has about 400 acres for development.
