As another casino giant entered the fray in Eastern Massachusetts, officials at Suffolk Downs, until recently the sole contender for a license in the region, expressed confidence Monday that their application would remain strongly competitive.
“We always knew there would be competition for the resort casino license in our region and that we would have to earn the license,” said Chip Tuttle, chief operating officer of Suffolk Downs, the thoroughbred racetrack that is working with casino giant Caesars Entertainment. “We are doing just that with a world-class proposal that will bring thousands of jobs to the people who need them, keep the new revenue in Massachusetts, and also bring much-needed transportation improvements to the area.”
