Watch and Wager LLC plans to
honor many of the legendary figures of California harness racing with an
extensive series of late closing events at their upcoming 2013/2014 fall-winter
meeting at Cal Expo. The trotters and pacers return on October 5 and will race
through May 17.
Among the highlights are the
Annette Funnicello pacing series starting on October 12; the Dr, Gary Budahn
Trotting series and Lonnie Beck Pacing series, which begin on December 27 and
28, respectively; the Alan Kirschenbaum pacing series that is set to get
underway on February 7; the Stan Bergstein Trotting series on March 21 and the
Lloyd Arnold Pacing series on March 22.
The California Harness
Horseman’s Association, in partnership with Watch and Wager LLC, is pleased to
offer a new horse incentive program for the meeting. Under the program, each
new horse will receive $1,000 in bonus money upon making its first start, with
a new horse being defined as a trotter or pacer that has not started at Cal
Expo since June 14, 2012.
Plenty
of stalls are still available with no stall rent. For the list of California
Harness Legends late closing events; complete new horse incentive rules; stall
