The Meadows announced today that it has moved the 2010 Arden Downs Stake for 2-year-old filly pacers to Friday, July 30. First post that day is 6:55 p.m. The Pennsylvania Harness Racing Commission has approved the change.
The event, known as the Catherine Baker Knoll, originally was scheduled for Saturday, July 31, as part of the Delvin Miller Adios final card, which includes multiple divisions of the Quinton Patterson Adioo Volo for 3-year-old filly pacers and the Gov. David L. Lawrence for freshman colt pacers.
With new barn construction scheduled throughout July, racing the Catherine Baker Knoll a day earlier will ease horse congestion on Adios Day and more comfortably accommodate construction plans. The Catherine Baker Knoll, which remains a vital feature of Grand Circuit Week, carries an estimated purse of $100,000. For more information, please contact race secretary Tom Leasure. (The Meadows)
