Louisiana Downs adds dates

Louisiana Downs has added two dates to its racing calendar. Both are Wednesday programs, on Sept. 10 and Sept. 17, according to Roxanne Tanner, the track’s director of racing.

“Our handle’s been showing an uptick this year,” she said of a reason for adding the dates.

Tanner said the move was made after discussions with the Louisiana Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association. She said first post for the added dates will be 4:05 p.m. Central. Louisiana Downs will wrap up its meet Sept. 23.
