Canterbury Park announced Thursday it will host 11 quarter horse stakes races during this summer's 54-day season, dropping four races from the schedule and reducing total stakes purses by about $200,000. The Shakopee track will have less purse money to work with this year, following last month's expiration of its 11-year purse enhancement agreement with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community. Its richest quarter horse race, the Northlands Futurity, will have an estimated purse of $86,000, down from $105,100 last season.
