Trotting Derby on for '07

 Return Home
October 13, 2006 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Du Quoin State Fair manager John Rednout Jr. says the World Trotting Derby will return to the fair’s harness racing lineup next year, but that it will have to become more than just a race. It has to be a “production” he said.

Rednour made his statements during a recent meeting of the Du Quoin Chamber of Commerce. The Du Quoin Evening Call reported that Rednour said Derby Day at the fair needs to be an event, a production, with a festival atmosphere, entertainment and a celebration of harness racing in Illinois. He added that while the Trotting Derby is on the 2007 schedule, there were no definite plans beyond that. He said if the fair terminates the race it would not be moved to another location. It would simply end.
