Hoosier Park Racing & Casino is pleased to announce that tickets are now on sale for premium betting carrel seating for the 34th edition of the Breeders Crown at Hoosier Park Racing & Casino on Friday, October 27 and Saturday, October 28.

The Breeders Crown, harness racing’s annual series of 12 championship events with purses valued at $6 million, is returning to the Midwest for the first time in more than three decades and for the very first time on Indiana soil at Hoosier Park.

The betting carrel tickets are $50 per person, per day, and include a reserved seat in Hoosier Park’s cutting-edge, individual betting carrels each featuring its own TV and betting station in a state-of-the-art simulcast center located in the Terrace area of the racing facility. Each ticket will also include a $20 dining or racing voucher and an official Breeders Crown live racing program. Packages are available for purchase via Ticketmaster or at Hoosier Park’s box office located within Shelby’s Gifts.

“We are humbled by the incredible response that we’ve already seen for tickets to the Breeders Crown,” said Hoosier Park Vice President and General Manager of Racing Rick Moore. “Our betting carrels offer spectacular finish-line views combined with state-of-the-art wagering technologies at your fingertips. We are pleased to provide our fans with a variety of seating and dining options to enjoy two nights of the best harness racing the sport has to offer.”

Hoosier Park also recently announced that the facility will be non-smoking throughout the Terrace on both Friday and Saturday nights of the Breeders Crown events to support a family-friendly environment. Smoking will only be permitted in the casino or outdoors. General admission into Hoosier Park is free, including the night of the Breeders Crown, but general seating is not guaranteed.

Hoosier Park’s seven-eighths mile track, opened in 1994 and now owned by Centaur Gaming, is the 31st racetrack to host the Breeders Crown. It is the final host track featured in a three-year agreement announced in 2014 by the Hambletonian Society. Hoosier Park will be the first track to host the event in the Midwest since 1995, when it was held at Northfield Park in Ohio.
