  • For Latest Results, Updates and Footage About Horse Races
    Annual Report 2012 Another successful season for all horse racing enthusiasts Another year has passed and the 2012 horse racing season was another one full of exciting competitions and championships. During this year, and thanks to the financial support of a number of entities, the Malta Racing Club managed to organize a number of competitions. The club also continued to upgrade the Marsa Racetrack Complex with major works on the main stand and the importation of new sand which was placed in the main track. These works were only possible thanks to the financial support of the Kunsill Malti ghall-Isport which is Malta’s Sport Authority and the Parliamentary Secretariat for Youth and Sport led by the Hon Clyde Puli. As in the past years, in 2012, Malta once again hosted one of the stages of the Mediterranean Championship for Drivers. This heat, held on the 31st March, was won by Maltese veteran driver Raymond Clifton with French trotter Polytain. Champion driver Noel Baldacchino also won another heat of this Championship which was organized at the UFA Racetrack in Russia. As in the previous editions, in this publication, our readers can find information about the major races not only held locally but also in the international scene. Official statistics issued by the Malta Racing Club are also being published in this annual. Finally I would like to thank those companies that once again are helping me financially to publish this annual. Special thanks goes also to the racetrack photographer Alex Azzopardi and to the MRC officials for their constant support.

"Out of the very element Of bondage, that here holds me pent, I'll make my furious sonnet: I'll turn my noose To tightrope use And madly dance upon it.

He lived comfortably and thoughtfully, as bachelors often do. He came of a respectable family, who had always conducted themselves calmly and without too much argument. They had bequeathed him just enough income to live on cheerfully, without display but without having to do addition and subtraction at the end of the month and then tear up the paper lest Fuji (the butler) should see it. It was strange, since Gissing was so pleasantly situated in life, that he got into these curious adventures that I have to relate. I do not attempt to explain it. He had no responsibilities, not even a motor car, for his tastes were surprisingly simple. If he happened to be spending an evening at the country club, and a rainstorm came down, he did not worry about getting home.

We are pleased and honored to bring the Breeders Crown back to the midwest and back to Indiana for the second time in the last five years. Hosting this event is a privilege and certainly a recognition of the hard work and dedication from our horsemen and horsewomen throughout the state. We value and appreciate the partnerships between Caesars Entertainment and The Hambletonian Society, The Indiana Standardbred Association, Indiana Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, Quarter Horse Racing Association of Indiana, Indiana Horsemen’s Benevolent Association and Protection Association, the Indiana Horse Racing Commission, the Indiana Legislature and of course, our racing fans and entire Harrah’s Hoosier Park team. Together, we have elevated the Indiana racing industry to new heights as witnessed by the success of the 2017 Breeders Crown event. This year has certainly presented its unique set of challenges but our team has remained committed to hosting a safe and exciting event for everyone to enjoy. This weekend, we are welcoming a reduced number of racing fans to Harrah’s Hoosier Park but will welcome thousands more watching from across the world. The stage is set and we are elated to showcase the best the sport of harness racing has to offer as they vie to solidify their place in Breeders Crown history.
