Northfield, OH — Roger Huston, the iconic voice of harness racing, will call the action Thursday (Aug. 28) at Northfield Park. The 15-race program will add to the tally of races he has announced, which currently stands at 167,200.

Huston has been the voice of The Meadows since 1976 and will be calling his 47th Little Brown Jug on Sept. 18. In addition, he has announced at 127 other venues. These include locations all over the United States, Canada, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Wales and Australia.

Huston, a member of the Harness Racing Hall of Fame, has enjoyed an amazing career in the sport — and it is a career that will continue — as he has no plans on retiring from the job he still immensely enjoys.
