Hollywood Casino at The Meadows in conjunction with the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association have announced that CBS Sports Network will nationally televise the 60th edition of the Grade 1 Delvin Miller Adios Pace for the Orchids on Saturday, July 25.
Presented by 1/ST BET, the Adios will serve as the centerpiece of three hours of live race-day coverage. The day will begin with two hours of content across Primetime Racing’s (primteimteharnessracing.com) social media platforms from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. before transitioning to a live national, one-hour cable telecast on CBS Sports Network at 5 p.m.
“We are very grateful to everyone who has come together to make this broadcast possible,” said Michael Carter, Director of Racing at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows. “From the team at CBS Sports, to the Primetime Racing broadcast team, to the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association, and everyone here at The Meadows, this has truly been a collaborative effort. We are excited for the opportunity to showcase our signature event to a national audience.”
The CBS Sports Network has a reach of nearly 60 million households across the United States.
The Delvin Miller Adios is one of only five Grade 1 stakes races for sophomore colt pacers in North America. Elimination races will be contested on Saturday, July 18, with the top finishers advancing to the July 25 final.
The Adios Day program will also feature a stakes-filled undercard, highlighted by the Mickey Burke Sr. Adioo Volo, the companion event to the Adios, which attracts many of the nation’s top three-year-old pacing fillies.
“This is the biggest day of our racing season,” said Carter. “The Adios consistently draws our largest on-track crowd and generates our highest wagering handle of the year. The race itself never disappoints, bringing together the sport’s premier horses, trainers and drivers. Having the opportunity to present this event to a national television audience is something we are incredibly proud of, and an opportunity we simply could not pass up.”
Media and on-site sponsorship opportunities remain available for Adios Day. Interested parties may contact Meadow Twaddle of the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association at [email protected] for additional information.
Post time for the July 25 race card is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows.
