The 2016-2017 racing schedule at Sacramentos Cal Expo State Fair Park runs weekend evenings from late October through the first weekend in May. Harness racing originally came to California in 1958 and by the early 70's harness racing was extremely popular with regularly 15,000 to 20,000 people coming out on the weekends, and this was before simulcasting. Over those previous 40 years, there was virtually a year-round calendar for Harness Racing fans. There was Hollywood Park, a spring meeting at Los Alamitos, and then meetings in the North between Bay Meadows and Golden Gate. In 1983, when Hollywood Park was converted from a mile to a mile and an eighth racetrack for the inaugural Breeders Cup, a mile harness race became logistically impossible. By 1993, there was only three and a half-months of trotting and pacing remaining in the Golden State at Los Alamitos. It was out of this extremely difficult period for harness racing in California that Capitol Racing was born in 1995, and its creation eventually brought the sport back to viability. The prior year there had been less than four months of racing in the state, because there was no meet at Cal Expo. Capitol Racing was founded because the sport needed some dates at Cal Expo to survive. It started with just an eight week meet with two programs a week in the fall of 1995. It steadily grew and within a couple of years there again was 40 weeks of harness racing in California between the north and south. 100% Cotton Garment Washed TwillRelaxed unstructured shapePrecurved BillOne size fits most with adjustable slide buckleWhite embroidered Capitol Harness Racing front logo placement
