Hamburg, NY — Buffalo Trotting Association and the Western New York Harness Horsemen’s Association have announced the addition of four racing days on Thursdays in March with a post time of 6:40 p.m.

Thirteen races will be conducted March 3, 10, 17 and 24 (pending NYSRWB approval), with the regular betting format including Dime Superfectas and the 50 cent Pick 4.

“It’s been a difficult winter for everyone with frigid temperatures causing the cancellation of three racing days to date,” said COO Jim Mango. “The additional days will provide racing opportunity for all the horses on the grounds.”

The 69th year of racing at the Hamburg oval continues with racing on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday nights at 6:40 p.m. Sundays will be added in June and July.

In addition to live racing, simulcast wagering from across North America is available Wednesday through Sunday.
