Prairie Meadows Racetrack has tabbed Stuart Slagle as racing secretary for the upcoming 2022 meet, which will comprise 84 live race days beginning May 13. Slagle had previously served as a racing official at the Iowa track in 2006, but was most recently the racing secretary and Director of Thoroughbred Race Planning and Analysis at Woodbine in Canada.
“What Stuart has accomplished and excelled at in his prior endeavors within the racing industry really stood out and convinced me that he'll be a fine asset to our team in the racing department going forward,” said Derron Heldt, Vice President of Racing at Prairie Meadows.
Live Thoroughbred racing will continue at Prairie Meadows through Oct. 1.
