racing schedule

Due to the extreme heat index forecasted for next week, live racing has been rescheduled for Thursday, June 26 through Saturday, June 28 at Delaware Park, the track said via a press release on Thursday. There will be no racing on Wednesday, June 25. Entries taken tomorrow, will be for the card rescheduled to Friday, June 27. Live racing is still planned for Saturday, June 21 with first race post time set for 12:35 p.m. ET.

In the end, things work because they work. We try stuff, often if not always with the best intentions, and see whether it gains our trust. Lived experience, among horsemen and fans, will eventually tell us whether an experiment has failed or whether, once every generation or so, we might have struck a game-changing seam of gold. The Breeders' Cup was one such; and, who knows, maybe a similar hostility from vested interests will ultimately prove the furnace in which HISA can be forged into another.
