Woodstock Driving Club Harness Racing

Step back in time with Harness racing at Connell Park Raceway. Harness racing has been a part of West NB summertime fun for 147 years, and the current track is one of the oldest still in use in the province. This exciting sport is more than just a pastime for participants - entire families come together to buy, raise, train and take care of the horses in stables right next to the track. 

The races at Connell Park Raceway are part of a circuit put on by the Maritime Provinces Harness Racing Commission, meaning that horses and drivers come from all over Atlantic Canada to participate. 

A love for harness racing runs deep through West NB - come see why for yourself during one of their race dates this summer.
