Here's some of the other nonsense that is going on with the race, but no real details on the website.

EXTREME RACE DAY
Saturday, July 19, 2014
First Horse Race: 12:45 PM
Presented By The Minnesota State Lottery

Don't miss all the fun and excitement of Extreme Race Day! Enjoy camel races, ostrich races, Zebra races and of course, horse racing too! The first horse race goes off at 12:45 PM.

Extreme Race Day just got a little more extreme as Buffalo Wild Wings presents The Extreme Wing Eating Challenge. Register here to participate!

Plus, it's a special Family Day at Canterbury Park, which includes pony rides, face painting, and petting zoo for the kids.

Zebra Race After Race 8


But if it brings more folks to the track, I guess that's good. I've been out there a couple of Friday nights and while the attendance seems ok, people just do not bet any $$$. The pools are way too small it seems to generate a significant advantage.
