Where Can I Bet the Preakness Stakes Online From Pennsylvania?
You can bet the Preakness Stakes online from Pennsylvania in the comfort of your home at any one of the internationally licensed racebooks, none of which will ever require a social security number. Most US-based horse books restrict a large swath of PA’s population.
There are restrictions when it comes to betting at one of the handful of US-based horse betting sites like XpressBet and TwinSpires from PA.
For example, residents located within 35 miles of Parx, Penn National, Pocono Downs, Harrahs Philly, or Presque Isle Downs are prohibited from opening Xpressbet accounts. That includes folks living in the Philadelphia area.There are advantages to betting at either internationally licensed online racebooks or US-based racebooks that we review below.
