Rockingham Park mulls over switch to harness racing

Posted: Saturday, November 30, 2002

Rockingham Venture, which is exploring land development options for struggling Rockingham Park in Salem, New Hampshire, is nearing a decision on whether it will seek Thoroughbred or harness dates for next summer.

Handle on Rockingham races has declined significantly since casinos opened in Connecticut, track officials have said.
