Bio

Robert Moser of Lincoln, NE, has become a defining figure in Nebraska"s horse racing and gaming landscape. While his journey began in Nebraska City, his current strategic leadership is centered in Lincoln, where he has shaped the future of the state’s racing industry through his influential roles with the Nebraska Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association (HBPA) and Omaha Exposition and Racing (OER). Born and raised in Nebraska, Robert Moser’s connection to the state’s agricultural roots and horse racing culture began early. He became deeply involved in the racing community, eventually becoming a prominent owner and breeder of thoroughbreds. His horses, such as Sing Charmer Sing and Going Platinum, are testament to his active participation in the sport, while his family’s legacy—particularly the influence of his father, Robert L. Moser Sr., a longtime breeder—has been foundational to his commitment to the equine traditions of both Lincoln and the wider state. As President of the Nebraska HBPA, Robert Moser of Lincoln emerged as the key advocate for horsemen. The HBPA represents owners, trainers, and backstretch workers, playing a vital role in negotiating contracts that ensure the survival of live racing. Under Moser’s leadership, the association navigated financial hardships for Nebraska’s racetracks, securing contracts that kept facilities like Fonner Park, Horsemen’s Park, Columbus, and Lincoln Race Course operating despite increasing competition from neighboring states. Moser’s role as a negotiator extended to difficult situations, such as the outbreak of EHV-1. The HBPA, under his guidance, stepped in to offer financial support, showcasing his commitment to the livelihoods of horsemen in Lincoln, Nebraska, and beyond. Perhaps his most significant contribution was his relentless advocacy for casino legalization. Recognizing the financial struggles of racing, Moser pushed for racinos—casinos attached to racetracks—as a way to secure the industry"s future. This advocacy played a pivotal role in the push for projects like the WarHorse plans, which proposed $440 million in casino development specifically for Lincoln and Omaha. Today, Robert Moser of Lincoln, Nebraska, continues to influence the state"s racing industry. His work as HBPA president and his advocacy for gaming expansion have left a lasting impact. Known also as Bob Moser and occasionally referred to as Robert L. Moser in the press, his leadership has become synonymous with advocacy, persistence, and a vision for the future of the Lincoln racing and gaming sectors.
