The 2023 Kentucky Derby has arrived, and if you're looking to get down action, there's no better place than TwinSpires.
Ahead all races at Churchill Downs and Saturday's Kentucky Derby, new users can take advantage of our TwinSpires promo code ACTIONRACING to earn up to $400 in bonus funds — an Action Network exclusive offer. TwinSpires is available in 39 states — we'll detail them all below in our interactive map.
You must wager $400 to unlock every $100 in bonus money — so to get the full $400 in bonus bets, you'll have to wager $1,600. You do have 30 days from sign-up to wager the full $1,600, so you can spread it out on all the Triple Crown races this month, including the Derby.
Where Does TwinSpires Operate?
TwinSpires operates in 39 states, including some of the most-populous ones — New York, California, Florida.
Here are the states where TwinSpires does not operate, per its website — Alaska, Georgia, Hawaii, Maine, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, and Washington DC. Some of those states don't offer horse racing betting at all, while a state like New Jersey has its own dedicated platform called 4NJBets, which is powered by TVG.
