Harrah's Chester Casino & Racetrack has been awarded 95 live racing days for its 2007 season, track officials have announced. The Pennsylvania Harness Racing Commission approved the venue's dates request at its meeting on Nov. 16.

Under the schedule filed with the state, the 2007 Harrah's Chester meet will commence Monday, July 9, and continue through Thursday, Dec. 20. Racing will be conducted on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. First post time will be 3:30 p.m. (ET) in July, August, and September, and 12:45 p.m. (ET) thereafter.

A special card of racing will be contested on Tuesday, Nov. 20. The track will be completely dark on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, Nov. 22).

"With our casino expected to open in January 2007, we anticipate a purse structure that will make us exceptionally competitive for the best horses in training," said Mike Tanner, Harrah's Chester director of racing operations. "We look forward to again presenting world-class harness racing throughout the summer and fall months next year."

Harrah's Chester is currently in the midst of its 45-day inaugural season, which runs through late December. (Harrah's Chester)
