Default CD under the lights 6/19 and 6/26

What does everyone think about this? Personally im pretty pumped and am really hoping that CD does a lot to get the word out on it. Would love to see 50,000 there for it as i think some people that may not go often may go just b/c its something different. Im keeping my fingers crossed. Any DT'ers plan on going?

KHRC also passed a $1 PK 3 linking the Oaks-Woodford Reserve-Derby and $0.50 Pick 4s for the whole meet.

I won't be at any of them but I think the night cards are a terrific idea.

I'm definately going to try to go to one of these. Would like to meet some of you if possible. Sounds like a ton of fun!

Love the addition of the .50 Pick 4. Good move.

First post will be at 6 pm Eastern. Reportedly will finish up around 11.

In addition to the 2 nights in June, they are also having 1 night of racing on July 2 (Thursday).

That's great. I love when I can play a track after work for a night card. Baseball has had night games for many years. I'm surprised there is not more night racing at the larger tracks.

Used to go to Garden State Park for night cards. It was fun. The weekends were still day racing so it was the best of both worlds.

Each date would feature an 11-race card, with the first post time at 6 p.m. and the final race to run about 11 p.m
