The Stronach Group, also known as 1/ST, is a privately owned company headquartered in Aurora, Ontario, and Hallandale Beach, Florida, United States. Originally founded in 1999, the multinational corporation reported $101.8 million in revenue as of 2024 and employs a permanent and seasonal workforce of over 2,400 team members. The company functions as a large private commercial horse racing, digital gaming, and entertainment enterprise, and is a dominant infrastructure operator within North American Thoroughbred racing. Established in 2020 through a comprehensive brand consolidation of entertainment, technology, and track assets, it manages approximately 20 percent of the total wagering industry share in North America.
Belinda Stronach recently wrote to Canadian Ministers of Health and Agriculture, alerting them to the potential circumvention of New World Screwworm import restrictions for horses on June 11, 2026. Previously, on May 12, 2026, 1/ST announced its renewed partnership with Equine MediRecord (EMR) and Business Infusions (BI) to digitize equine welfare protocols for Preakness 151, enhancing health and safety measures for the race held at Laurel Park while Pimlico Race Course undergoes redevelopment. This followed a landmark agreement on April 23, 2026, where Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI) moved to acquire the intellectual property rights to the Preakness Stakes from The Stronach Group's 1/ST Racing arm. Earlier, on April 15, 2026, 1/ST publicly supported the SAFE Act, underscoring the industry's shared commitment to horse care. In January, on the 19th, Maryland revealed plans to purchase Laurel Park to convert it into a training center, shifting from an earlier proposal for Shamrock Farm as part of an effort to revitalize the state's thoroughbred horse racing industry.
