Trois-Rivieres, PQ — Track management at the Hippodrome 3R has announced that the qualifying races scheduled to be held this Saturday (April 8) have been canceled.

Qualifying races will be held Tuesday (April 11) starting at 11 a.m. Horses must be entered to race on Monday (April 10) by 11 a.m.

Opening day at the Hippodrome 3R is set for Sunday (April 23) with a new first race post time of 12:50 p.m.
