Campbellville, ON — The much-hyped Mayweather-Pacquiao boxing match joins the Kentucky Derby on Saturday (May 2) to create a mega sports day and Mohawk Racetrack is the spot to catch all the action.

Racing and sports fans will be able to take in a full day of events, including live racing, Saturday at Mohawk for no admission fee.

Horseplayers will be able to watch and wager on the entire Kentucky Derby Day card in the Mohawk Racebook. First race post time from Churchill Downs is 10:30 a.m.

Later in the day, doors to the live racing section of the grandstand will open at 5:30 p.m. and fans will be able to watch and wager on the Derby. Post time for the Kentucky Derby is approximately 6:24 p.m. and the race will be shown on Mohawk’s infield screen.

Live harness racing takes over at Mohawk after the Derby with a special early post time of 7:05 p.m.

Following live racing, fans will be able to stick around and catch the highly anticipated Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao boxing match inside the Trackside Bar. Food and drink service will be available and there will be no charge for admission.
