POST TIME FOR THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 ADJUSTED TO 1:25 P.M.
Posted on September 5th, 2023
After reviewing the racing landscape for this coming Thursday, Sept. 7, officials at Colonial Downs have decided to modify its first post time for that day to 1:25 p.m. to better coordinate with other racetracks running that day.
Live racing this week – the final week of the 27-day day meet – begins with a special card on Wednesday, September 6 to make up for a program lost earlier in the season. The 10-race card, which starts at the standard 1:30 p.m., features a $12,055 carryover into the 50-cent Early Pick 4 (races 1-5) with a low 12% takeout.
Saturday’s closing day card is highlighted by the Grade 3 $500,000 New Kent County Virginia Derby as well as five additional stakes topped by the $250,000 Virginia Oaks.
