Drf lists the 2005 racing dates...some of these places were knocked down years ago. To the credit of DRF, they at least say no dates in 2005.

Guess they leave the track name on there as long as there are still horses around that ran there? Otherwise the newbie may see Hia and wonder what the heck that is (unfortunately)

I'd be very surprised if a horse that ran at Ak-Sar-Ben is still around, but I've been wrong before!

Well, maybe even still breeding even. Someone wants a complete history sort of thing on a horse they are considering breeding. Just reaching here really....

They should have added after the HOLLYWOOD PARK dates -"No longer any TURF racing"

I guess the point was, I wanted to find some upcoming racing dates, and the list is extremely user unfriendly.

I usually look at the calendar at Equibase when I am in question. It even has links to most of the track web pages

Thanks for the tip, I'll use that one in the future.

The NTRA has a Master Calendar. I find this useful.

Is there any place online with 2006 racing dates yet?

Leaping Plum might still be in training, even though he'd be about 15 by now, maybe more. He's the one that won some race at Fonner about 10 years in a row.

cj,

Weren't they doing that hialeah/tropical/(fill in any track)-at-calder nonsense recently? ak-sar-ben-at-prm, maybe?
