About this listen
In a significant move addressing horse welfare and safety concerns, 1/ST Racing has announced that they will discontinue selling the simulcast signal from Gulfstream Park to Puerto Rico. This decision will take effect this weekend and is part of an ongoing effort to ensure the highest standards of care and safety in horse racing operations. The removal of this simulcast signals a commitment to addressing the welfare issues that have been a topic of concern within the racing community.
Meanwhile, at Keeneland, exciting developments are underway as the track aims to enhance the fan experience. The Keeneland Stakes Winner's Circle is set to relocate closer to the spectator areas. This move is designed to bring fans closer to the action, enriching their racing experience. Further supporting the industry in Kentucky, the Kentucky Horse Racing and Gaming Corporation has approved the transfer of $1.25 million in KTDF purse funds from Kentucky Downs to Keeneland, showcasing support for local racing initiatives and economic growth.
As the racing community prepares for these upcoming events and changes, bettors and fans alike are gearing up for a thrilling day at the races. Whether following the expert advice from DRF handicappers or watching the evolving dynamics in horse racing governance, August 8 promises a captivating blend of sport and strategy.
