Daily Racing Form, a subsidiary of Affinity Interactive and a brand within the Apex Hospitality platform backed by Z Capital Group, LLC, announced new multi-year print distribution agreements with American Wagering, Inc. and Boyd Gaming Corporation, further expanding its presence across key gaming and racing markets. The agreements, executed on March 16, 2026, and March 25, 2026, respectively, establish Daily Racing Form as the exclusive provider of past performances and print racing publications across a broad network of casino and racebook locations. Under the agreement with American Wagering, Daily Racing Form will distribute its publications across a network of Las Vegas-area casinos and affiliated properties, including major destinations such as Caesars Palace, Harrah?s Las Vegas, and Planet Hollywood, among others.
Similarly, the agreement with Boyd Gaming provides for exclusive distribution across several of its Las Vegas properties, including Gold Coast, Orleans, and Sam?s Town. Together, these agreements significantly expand Daily Racing Form?s retail footprint, reinforcing its position as the provider of racing data and print publications in the industry. Daily Racing Form currently produces 21 distinct editions distributed across racetracks, casinos, and retail outlets nationwide, with approximately six million copies circulated annually, making it the racing publication organization in the world.
The expansion further strengthens Daily Racing Form?s role as a data and information provider in a sport where real-time analytics and performance insights are central to the customer experience. The agreements build on Daily Racing Form?s recent momentum, including its December 2025 partnership with Churchill Downs Incorporated to provide printed racing products across its properties, marking a step in the continued evolution of the racing ecosystem. The renewed collaboration comes at a time for the industry, ahead of marquee events including the Kentucky Oaks and Kentucky Derby, taking place on May 1st and 2nd, 2026.
The expansion of Daily Racing Form?s print distribution is part of Apex Hospitality?s broader strategy to enhance customer engagement across its integrated platform. Through Affinity Interactive, Daily Racing Form operates within a scaled omni-channel platform that supports innovation across retail, digital, and on-property experiences.
