HORSES AND DOGS HIT J.D.A. RACEWAY ON WEEKEND

Racing fans who show up at The Horses At Evergreen Park this weekend are going to get some long races and some short ones … and some longish racers with short legs.

Saturday starts with two short ones -both just 870 yards. There are six horses entered in each race. First post is 1:15 p.m. and the second race is slated to start at 1:35 p.m.

Sunday ends with one of the longer horse races of the year – the 2nd Leg of the Marathon Series over 1 1/16 miles.

Three of the five horses that competed in Leg 1 of the Marathon July 6 are back including winner Shining Tiger, second place finisher Kiss Me Hello and fourth place finisher Simms.

Race 6 Saturday and Race 3 on Sunday are also longish at seven furlongs – or 1,540 yards.

DOG DERBY GOES SUNDAY

The shortest of the short will also be performing Sunday when the annual Wiener Dog Derby Presented By Ovintiv hits the dirt at J.D.A. Raceway.

Almost 20 dogs have entered in the event – which also includes a costume contest. The dogs will run between horse races.

There is no admission fee to watch the horses or the dogs.

PLACE YOUR BETS

Betting kiosks are offered both outside and inside in the MNP Concourse and there is beverage station and large hospitality tent between the Gordon Badger Stadium and the paddock.

There will be food trucks on site and there is a large sand pile, with toys provided, for the kids to enjoy. There are smoking areas on either side of the stadiumTo see a full schedule of races, and special events go here.

If you can’t make it to the races at any time this season, you can still watch and wager.

All of the races are shown life, and replays too, here.

If you want to wager you can do so through HIPBet or Xpressbet.
