Plainville, MA — The 2024 Spirit of Massachusetts Trot card at Plainridge Park that was held on Sunday (July 21) turned out to be the most successful at the windows in the seven-year history of the event.

The $334,389 overall handle was the highest total ever realized for a Spirit Day card and the $48,137 on-track take was the second highest behind only the 2019 program.

Steve O’Toole, Director of Racing at Plainridge Park, was very happy with those numbers and was quick to credit those who made it happen.

“We have a very loyal customer base at Plainridge and they came out in force on a beautiful summer day to bet on a very competitive card of racing put together by race secretary Paul Verrette. I want to thank my entire staff for their hard work in planning and logistics leading up to Sunday in order to put on this first class event. We are already looking forward to next year,” said O’Toole.
