The Yorkton Exhibition successfully hosted the horse racing portion of the 2012 Yorkton Exhibition/fair July 4-7 as cooperative weather and event planning allowed the events to go on smoothly.
Thursday featured Yorkton Auction Centre Chariot Races at three p.m. and Farrell Agencies Chuckwagon Races on what was Yorkton Co-op Kiddies Day. July 6 was Yorkton Hyundai Family Day and like Thursday featured both chariot and chuckwagon race events. The Yorkton Auction Centre harness racing action kicked off at two p.m. while the Farrell Agencies chuckwagons ended the final day for chariot and chuckwagon racing at the 2012 fair.
On Saturday Standardbred Harness racing finished up the fair's horse racing action in what was a successful running of the horse racing events at the grandstand for another year.
Cornerstone Raceway will still be hosting race events throughout the summer including the Painted Hand Casino Roughstock Rodeo August 8th and 9th. For more information on horse racing events at the Cornerstone Raceway go to yorkton events.com or yorktonexhibition.com
