'PA Harness Week,' harness racing’s fastest-paced half-hour, returns this weekend for its third season with even more thrilling action.

The show, which features the best of harness racing from Pennsylvania and across the globe, has a new look and a faster-paced format including revamped features, interviews and news segments. PA Harness Week is hosted by racing veterans Steve Ross and Heather Moffett. Ebe 'The Coach' Helm returns as the show’s ace handicapper and former news anchor Jennifer Sherlock joins the team as a reporter.

New episodes begin airing on Saturday, April 17 at 10:30 a.m. on Comcast SportsNet
Philadelphia and continue through December 18. Fans outside of the viewing area can catch new episodes online shortly after they air at harnessweek.com, which also links to the show’s YouTube video archive and Facebook fan page.

Bruce Casella, the show’s Emmy® award-winning producer, said: “From the beginning, PA Harness Week was aimed at novices and longtime fans alike. Our new format makes for an even more exciting half hour, while keeping all the fun and irreverent humor viewers have come to expect.”
