However, beginning March 1 all post times will be at 12:50p.m.

“Since we race during the afternoons it’s imperative that we complete our programs before darkness sets in so during the winter months we go with an earlier post times,” Shawn Wiles, track general manager explained.. “But when March rolls around and the days get longer, our post times are one- half hour later and we’ll continue with 12:50p.m.post times until October 31.”
