Harness racing Friday and Saturday at Cal Expo


By Mark Ratzky, publicity – Cal Expo Harness

Harness racing will be conducted this Friday and Saturday at Cal Expo, with first post at 6:10 p.m. and 10-race cards presented each night.

There is a $40,644 carryover in the 10-cent Single 6 on Friday, and there are two wagers offered with a reduced 16 percent takeout rate – the 20-cent Pick 5 and 20-cent Pick 4.

The Pick 4 features a $30,000-guaranteed gross pool on Friday and $40,000 on Saturday.

The California Horse Racing Board denied Watch and Wager LLC’s request to run cards on Tuesday and Wednesday with a 3:30 p.m. post and those programs were switched to the usual Friday and Saturday evening slots.
