(Grand Prairie, Texas - Sunday, April 21, 2013) - Turf racing at Lone Star Park has been suspended and will not resume until at least Saturday, May 4. In the interim, all races already scheduled for the turf will be taken at their normal alternate distance on the main track.

The growth of the turf coure is far behind schedule and has been deemed to unsafe for racing until more growth has emerged - in particular the area by the half-mile pole.

Lone Star Park will provide updated information when it is available. The track apologizes for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience.
