Ohio law does not directly address advance deposit wagering, which enables residents to wager on horse racing via the telephone and internet, but most licensed ADW providers offer the service to Ohioans.
The state also has a couple home-grown ADW operations: BetHarness.com, a service of Northfield Park, and Racelinebet.com, a subsidiary of Scioto Downs. Both are affiliates of the Churchill Downs-owned TwinSpires.com.
