Turfway Park adds February dates

By: SPORTS NETWORK

Florence, KY (Sports Network) - Turfway Park has elected to pick up the option to add four racing days to its February schedule. The track, home of the Spiral Stakes, will conduct race cards on all four Fridays and Saturdays in February.

"Our decision to race these dates was influenced by our continued strong field size, the response to our Friday night events, and the horsemen's preference to maintain the continuity of racing rather than take the two-week break," said General Manager Chip Bach.

The track is adding live racing on Feb, 15, 16, 22, and 23 to go along with Feb. 1, 2, 8, and 9. Turfway Park is already set to have racing on every Friday and Saturday in March along with Thursday, March 21. Sundays in March are optional and a decision has not been made regarding the optional March dates.

The Spiral Stakes will be on Saturday, March 23 with live racing ending one week later.
