No harness racing threads in three weeks?

I realize the sport is dying, just didn't realize that it had already happened?

I always bet harness! The only time I bet Thoroughbreds its on the first Saturday in May.

The 3 year old stakes for pacers are coming up in June & July.

I think there are a lot of positives taking shape in harness racing. Handle and attendance are up at a lot of facilities. Hazel Park has a brand new internet radio show that is pretty cool. Its on their website www.hazelparkraceway.com (http://www.hazelparkraceway.com) , Dover had some trmendous races this year and is quickly becoming a harness hotspot. Monticello just built a brand new paddock and attendance and purses are up their tremendously. Even little Jackson Raceway is making a comeback after purchased by MTR racing. There are great young announcers in harness racing. John McGary from Sacramento, Mike Bozich from Hazel has a tremendous future ahead of him. Jason Zielinski of Scioto is tremendous, and of course harness racing has something that the flats don't. LARRY LETTERMAN!!!!!

Harness racing is not dead. Just take a look at JoeG's or Melman's bank accounts if you don't believe me.:D
