Bowie Race Track president Donald Lillis accused the Maryland Racing Commission of unfairly limiting Bowie to 10 Saturdays and two dark days for the 52 day meeting opening next Monday. He argued more Saturdays and dark days would boost revenue for Bowie, the state and horsemen, and cited the commission’s rule of equal Saturdays among Bowie, Laurel and Pimlico. He noted weather-related cancellations and said the track expects $1 million in improvements before opening.
