After Governor John Kasich approved video lottery terminals at Ohio racetracks in 2011,[1] a joint venture of Churchill Downs Inc. and Delaware North Companies agreed in March 2012 to buy Lebanon Raceway from the Nixon and Carlo families for $60 million,[2] and planned to transfer its license to a new $215-million racino to be built several miles away.[3] The purchase was completed in December 2012.[3] The casino at the new location opened on December 12, 2013.[4] In 2017, Miami Valley Gaming spent $5 million on expansion, adding new patio and high limit areas.[5]
In November 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic in Ohio, the Miami Valley Gaming announced that they would change their operating hours due to the statewide curfew imposed by Governor Mike DeWine.[6]
