FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) — It’s the final weekend for horse racing at the North Dakota Horse Park.
Two of the four days of races were held last weekend. About six dozen horses competed in eight races on Saturday.
Organizers say Sunday they’re expecting to see the biggest day in terms of purse money.
“[People] appreciate this is right in the backyard here in Fargo, cheap entertainment, $5 to get in, you don’t even have to know anything about racing, you don’t have to make a bet if you don’t want to. We think we’re some of the best value entertainment in the F–M area,” Mike Schmitz, president of the ND Horse Park Foundation, said.
There were lots of activities for Kids’ Day at the race. Today is Ladies’ Day, which includes a Derby hat contest.
