It seems that in Terre Haute, Indiana, things are finally going according to plan for Churchill Downs. After some delays, the company can now say the casino in southwestern Indiana is on schedule.

Exactly how the introduction of Indiana’s 14th casino will affect the gambling industry in the state is unclear as of yet. For Churchill Downs, though, it could provide an opportunity to expand its online gambling footprint.

The good news for Terre Haute residents is that there is no news. News of the truly significant kind, that is. The casino’s general manager, Mike Rich, told Hill Kerby of PlayIndiana that “the casino is still scheduled to be open at the end of the first quarter of 2024.”
