Clinton Raceway is reporting strong support.

The 11 race card on Sunday generated over $77,000 in wagering. The track also welcomed a limited number of fans back as they followed new spectator guidelines.

There are five weeks left in the shortened 2020 season including this Sunday, August 9th.

All fans and horse people should be commended for adhering to the newly found rules and regulations in doing their part. Anyone interested in watching the races live can pre register by emailing [email protected].
