Churchill Downs, Inc. (CDI) has responded to a formal complaint from the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA) which accused CDI of failing to pay $5 million in required 2025 fees. CDI argues that HISA’s actions represent a “troubling pattern of overreach” and mischaracterization of their commitment to safety, adding that they received HISA’s letter minutes before an article about the complaint was published. HISA, however, claims CDI has been “freeloading” on their services, leading to a hearing scheduled for March 11.
