Caesars Entertainment to Retain Ownership of Horseshoe Hammond Casino

Horseshoe Hammond Casino will remain under current ownership after a ruling from the Indiana Gaming Commission. Last week, the commission amended its order requiring Las Vegas-based parent Caesars Entertainment to divest the casino as part of its 2020 merger with Eldorado Resorts.

With the commission’s ruling, Caesars will continue to own and operate Horseshoe Hammond, Indiana Grand Racing & Casino in Shelbyville, and Harrah’s Hoosier Park Racing & Casino in Anderson, as well as its three off-track betting locations.

“We are confident that our continued operating of Horseshoe Hammond is in the best interest of our Team Members, guests, the Hammond community, and the State of Indiana. We believe that maintaining our strong customer and employee relationships at Horseshoe Hammond makes the property best positioned for a strong and exciting future,” Tom Reeg, CEO of Caesars Entertainment, said.
