In a statement released Wednesday (Feb. 27), MGM Resorts International released a new name and logo for Northfield Park.

The Cleveland-area track, currently known as Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park, will become MGM Northfield Park in April when MGM Resorts International is expected to complete their acquisition of the property.

"MGM Northfield Park is situated in a great location within a vibrant community and offers wonderful amenities — from dining and entertainment venues to gaming, harness racing and retail options," Chris Kelley, president of MGM Northfield Park, said in the statement.

"It has been an absolute pleasure working with the Hard Rock team during this transition," Kelley continued. "They have created a successful and special destination with a terrific team and they have our commitment that we will uphold the high standards they have set."
