October 31, 2006 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Michigan Racing Commissioner Christine White announced Tuesday the 2007 racing schedule in the Wolverine State, and the state's flagship harness racetrack, Hazel Park, will race just 108 dates, the fewest since 1984 when it had 84 nights of live racing. The following year Hazel Park became the sole spring/summer site in the Metro Detroit area for harness racing, racing 168 dates, before reducing the number the past few years.

Hazel Park will open Friday, April 20, and race through Saturday, Oct. 9. The track will race four nights--Monday, Tuesday, Friday and Saturday--through June 21, and then add Thursdays the rest of the way.

The harness schedule begins Jan. 5 at Northville Downs with a 58-date meet that runs through Apri. 14. Sports Creek Raceway will have 30 days of racing from Jan. 5 through March 11. Jackson Harness Raceway opens April 27 for a 36-date meet through July 21. Racing then returns to Sports Creek on Oct. 5 for 40 days through Dec. 31, and Northville Downs re-opens Oct. 17 for 43 days through Dec. 29.
