The Ontario Harness Horse Association, Great Canadian Gaming Corporation, and the Northern Horsemen’s Association appealed the Director's decision regarding the 2011 Ontario Racing Program.
The appeals concerned the minimum number of race dates, scheduling, and redistribution of purse monies at certain racetracks.
The Ontario Racing Commission denied the appeals of OHHA and GCGC, but varied the decision for NHA by adding three race dates in December and dropping two dates for Sudbury Downs, resulting in 66 live race dates for 2011.
