House Bill 904 prohibits KHRGC licensees, meaning tracks, sportsbook licensees and the newly created fantasy-contest licensees, from operating or contracting with prediction-market platforms offering event contracts within Kentucky. This is a new and durable statutory distribution restriction that did not exist prior to this cycle. It creates exit or divestiture pressure on any KHRGC-licensed operator that also offers prediction-market products in other states, since continued Kentucky licensure now appears incompatible with maintaining those prediction-market distribution relationships. The restriction is a direct target of the pending Coalition for Fair Markets litigation.
