In 2019, we established indefinite-lived intangible assets of $56.0 million for gaming rights and $15.2 million for trademarks related to the Presque Isle Transaction. We also acquired indefinite-lived intangible assets of $8.0 million for online gaming rights in Pennsylvania related to our Online Wagering operations, $10.0 million for retail sports betting gaming rights at Presque Isle and online sports betting gaming rights in Pennsylvania, as well as $3.0 million for other gaming rights at Presque Isle. We also established indefinite-lived intangible assets of $5.5 million for trademarks and $9.8 million for gaming rights related to the Turfway Park acquisition.
In 2018, we established indefinite-lived intangible assets of $87.0 million for gaming rights and $8.3 million for trademarks related to the Ocean Downs/Saratoga Transaction. We also established definite-lived intangible assets of $2.3 million relating to the opening of Derby City Gaming and $0.1 million relating to the Ocean Downs/Saratoga Transaction for other intangibles.
Amortization expense for definite-lived intangible assets was $15.0 million in 2019, $6.0 million in 2018, and $6.8 million in 2017 and is classified in operating expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. As described further in Note 3, Acquisitions, we accelerated the amortization for the assignment of the Turfway Park Acquisition purchase and sale agreement rights of $10.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, which is included in All Other in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We submitted payments of $2.3 million in 2019 and 2018 for annual license fees for Calder, which are being amortized to expense over the annual license period.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets consist primarily of trademarks and state gaming rights in Maine, Maryland, Mississippi, Louisiana, Pennsylvania and Kentucky.
We performed our annual indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment analysis as of April 1, 2019, which included an assessment of qualitative and quantitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair values of the indefinite-lived intangible assets are less than the carrying amount. We concluded that the fair values of our indefinite-lived intangible assets exceeded their carrying value, and therefore step two of the assessment was not required.
During 2017, the Company recorded a $4.7 million non-cash impairment charge related to our Bluff operations ($4.5 million for a trademark and $0.2 million related to customer relationships), which is included in our Online Wagering segment, and a $3.3 million non-cash impairment charge related to our Illinois Horseracing Equity Trust, which is included in All Other in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income. These impairments were due to changes in the business climate in 2017 that resulted in projected future cash flows being less than carrying value.
Future estimated aggregate amortization expense on existing definite-lived intangible assets for each of the next five fiscal years is as follows (in millions):
Years Ended December 31,Estimated Amortization Expense
2020$5.2  
20212.2  
20222.2  
20231.7  
20241.1  
Future estimated amortization expense does not include additional payments of $2.3 million in 2020 and in each year thereafter for the ongoing amortization of future expected annual Calder license fees not yet incurred or paid.
