After a two week break following the Indiana State Fair Championships, Indiana Sired Fair Circuit (ISFC) racing will resume at the Miami County Fairgrounds in Converse Friday, Aug. 24. The program will be followed by the Elite racing program at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Tuesday, Aug. 28.

In all, there are eight more ISFC-related programs on the agenda for 2018. Other upcoming dates include the Jay County Fairgrounds at Portland Saturday, Sept. 1, the Shelby County Fairgrounds Saturday, Sept. 8, the Clinton County Fairgrounds at Frankfort Saturday, Sept. 15, the Fayette County Fairgrounds at Connersville Sept. 22, the Harrison County Fairgrounds at Corydon Saturday, Sept. 29 and the final ISFC program for 2018 will be held Saturday, Oct. 6 at the Elkhart County Fairgrounds in Goshen.
The action on the ISFC circuit this season has produced some quick miles and displayed some great talent from the two and three-year-old ranks on both the trot and the pace. The second half of the season should be just as exciting with many of the racing opportunities on Saturdays, which is more convenient for racing fans to make it out to watch their favorites this fall.
