During the month of March Monticello Raceway will add an
afternoon race card on Friday, March 2 and racing will continue on Mondays,
Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays throughout the remainder of the month.
Beginning Thursday March 1st all post times will
be at 12:50pm; twenty –five minutes later than during the previous months.
Among the events slated during March include the 11th annual
St. Paddy Pace which will feature the talents of Irish-American harness drivers
and will be presented on March 15th. That date was chosen because
the Mighty M doesn’t race on Saturdays and St. Patrick’s Day, March 17 falls on
a Saturday.
Simulcast
wagering on thoroughbreds—as well as some other harness tracks—will be
available during the afternoons while the evenings will largely be devoted to
harness simulcasts.
And of
course, there’s also year-round gaming at the Monticello Casino and Raceway.
