Due to Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI) data licensing restrictions, wagering on all CDI tracks is unavailable to MyWinners customers located outside Connecticut - This includes the Kentucky Derby.
This applies to the full CDI track roster, including:
Churchill Downs
Fair Grounds
Turfway Park
Presque Isle Downs.
Who Can Bet
Inside Connecticut: Full access to all CDI tracks online and at all nine Winners venues, including MyWinners East Haven.
Outside Connecticut: CDI tracks are blocked. All other tracks on the MyWinners program remain available as normal.
Why This Restriction Exists
Churchill Downs Incorporated controls the data licensing rights for its tracks and sets the terms under which licensed operators can accept wagers from each state.
MyWinners is licensed to offer CDI tracks to Connecticut residents only.
This is a licensing requirement, not a MyWinners policy decision.
What You Can Still Bet On
Out-of-state customers retain full access to every non-CDI track. Your account, balance, and all other betting markets are unaffected.
In-Person Betting in Connecticut
Anyone over 18 can bet in person at any of the nine MyWinners venues. Live coverage and full card availability throughout the weekend.
