Hipodromo de las Americas has signed a long-term agreement with Roberts Communications Network to carry the track's signal, making it available to all other tracks and advance deposit wagering companies worldwide for simulcast purposes.
The move allows the daily race card at the Mexico City track to be carried by satellite on the Roberts platform to any other tracks wishing to take wagering on the Mexican races.
"This is an exciting move for our company," said Ramon Rionda, vice president of racing for Codere, the gaming company based in Madrid, Spain, that owns Hipodromo de las Americas. "Our racing universe is expanding on an international basis, so it's incumbent upon us as a business to share our signal worldwide."
Rionda said the company also had reached an agreement with InCompass, the international arm of Equibase's data collection and dissemination system. Equibase provides past performances, among other data, for the racing industry in North America.
"Being able to send simulcast signals internationally will also benefit our horsemen with a potential for increased revenue through purse enhancements," said Sergio Alaman, general manager of Hipodromo de las Americas.
