Tune in for a livestream of Turfway Park’s opening night. Horse Racing Nation’s Mark Midland hosts the stream with special guest, jockey Tyler Conner. Other guests also are set to appear, but they will remain a surprise until broadcast time.
Turfway Park kicks off its winter-spring meet at 5:55 p.m. EST. The track’s Tapeta surface, as well as purses boosted by historical horse racing, has drawn overflow fields for most of the nine-race card.
In all, 117 horses are drawn into the races, with field sizes ranging from nine to 14. Click here to see where Horse Racing Nation‘s Ed DeRosa sees value on the card.
Tyler Conner is a top-100 ranked rider based on the East Coast. He is beginning his second season at Turfway after a banner season last year.
