Vernon, NY — Due to insufficient entries for Thursday (Sept. 14) Vernon Downs management has been forced to cancel racing.
Events from Thursday that filled or were somewhat close to filling have been added to the condition sheet for the double draw on Tuesday (Sept. 12) for Friday (Sept. 15) and Saturday (Sept. 16). Some classes were already written again for the double draw.
“With the New York Sire Stakes having a race for each division in the next 11 days and several barns having sickness issues it created a shortage in the entry box again,” said Vice-President of Racing Operations Jason Settlemoir.
All horses from the Thursday draw have been re-entered. If you wish to not race on Friday or Saturday please contact the Race Office prior to 9 a.m. on Tuesday.
Added events for Tuesday’s draw:
Event #29 – F&M NW 1000 P/S CD – Opt. Clm. $20,000
Event #30 – F&M NW 500 P/S CD – Opt. Clm. $8,000
Event #31 – F&M NW 350 P/S CD – Opt. Clm. $6,000
Event #32 – F&M NW 200 P/S CD – Opt. Clm. $4,000
Event #33 – F&M W1-NW3 LT CD – Opt. Cd. Clm. $10,000
