Northfield, OH — Due to an unexpected overage of horses, Northfield has scheduled a live racing date for Wednesday night, June 17. Post time will be 7:00 (EDT) as normal. This is a make-up date for a weather-related cancellation this winter.

Also, please note that our best race of the season, the $100,000 Battle of Lake Erie, a by-invitation-only event for the sport’s best pacers, is coming up on Saturday night, June 27.

We return to a four-night-per-week live schedule in July, with Tuesday night racing back for the rest of 2009.
