DRF Harness Digest | 3 | June 24, 2021 Visit us online at drf.com/harness Can the “pay to play” system work in harness racing? EDITOR’S EYE By Derick Giwner @DRFHarness So far in 2021 we have five races – four Next Generation events and the Mohawk Million – which work on this payment plan, where owners buy a spot into a race and the track puts up some additional money to fill out the purse. In the Next Generation the entry fee is $10,000 for a spot with nine slots sold and a final purse of $150,000. So $90,000 comes from owners and $60,000 from the track’s purse account, a 60/40 split. The Mohawk Million handles things a bit differently. Here nine owners put up $100,000 in Canadian dollars and a tenth horse – the winner of the William Wellwood Memorial – is awarded a free entry into the $1,000,000 (CDN) final.

  • Delaware Agricultural Statistics Service, for His Hard Work in Designing, Implementing, Evaluating This Study and Preparing It for Publication
    Dear Friend of Delaware Agriculture: I am very pleased and proud to present the results of the 2004 Delaware Equine Study, the first ever comprehensive study of this important segment of our agricultural industry. I want to thank Governor Ruth Ann Minner, the Delaware General Assembly, the racing commissions, and the Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund for providing the funding for this project. I also want to thank the Delaware Equine Council for their help and each and every person who voluntarily participated in this very important study. As clearly shown by the numbers contained within this report, the equine industry’s importance to Delaware’s economy is significant and growing. In addition to the expenditures Delaware equine owners and operations make into the state economy, our racetracks, equine show and competition facilities, breeding, training, and boarding operations attract thousands from outside of Delaware who also expend significantly into our state economy. Not only does the industry directly provide jobs for thousands of Delawareans, but also indirectly through expenditures made for feed and bedding, veterinarian services, equipment, grooming and tack supplies, maintenance and repair and other sectors of the industry’s infrastructure. Equine and equine operations make significant contributions to the quality of life in Delaware by keeping land in open space, and providing a wide diversity of recreational activities available to the general public. As spectators or participants, countless Delawareans enjoy equine racing, shows and competitions, pony rides, trail and pleasure riding, and much more. For many, the view of Delaware from atop a horse is the best one. I know firsthand how important equines are and have been socially and recreationally to my family and to the quality of life of many others in Delaware.
