Due to the ongoing pandemic, organizers will be carding only two horse races, the Howard County Cup open timber, the Alda Clark novice timber.
Also in deference to the current climate, tailgating is not, at this time, available to the general public.
The race meet showcases one of Maryland's most historic sports, horse racing over the open countryside while jumping over natural fences. Spectators enjoy an outdoor party, vying for "Best Tailgate Awards" while cheering on the horses and riders.
Currently not open to the general public.
