You can bet online at TwinSpires.com from Illinois but will need to provide your social security number in order to do so. Online racebooks licensed outside the state also accept customers from Illinois without the need to provide a social security number. 18 years and up permitted.
Illinois embraces horse racing and the betting that goes with it. The state is home to a handful of race tracks including Fairmount in the southern part of the state and Arlington closer to Chicago. Hawthorne is another top race track located near Chicago.
Illinois is a big state and getting to these tracks is not easy for everyone. Most of the state’s horse racing aficionados will opt for online betting as opposed to venturing out to the tracks. You can bet nearly every one of them will be getting down on the Kentucky Derby.
