SHELBYVILLE, IN—OCTOBER 1, 2020—The Indiana Horse Racing Commission approved two additional 2020 racing dates for Indiana Grand at their regular monthly meeting today (Oct. 1).

The two dates will be included on the final week of racing, increasing the schedule to 92 days for Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse action and a total of 96 days overall, adding in four days dedicated to all-Quarter Horse racing.

The two additional dates added to the schedule will be Monday, Nov. 16 and Thursday, Nov. 19, which will become the new closing date for the 18th season of Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing at Indiana Grand. Post time for both days is 2:20 p.m.

"While the unprecedented COVID conditions have been difficult, our meet thus far has been a success by any measure," said Eric Halstrom, vice president and general manager of racing at Indiana Grand. "With our total handle being up almost 60 percent over the same days in 2019, we’re thrilled to add two additional racing days and more opportunities for our horsemen near the end of the meet."

The two additional dates are expected to include both Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing.
