The box for fair racing at the old Quinte Exhibition and Raceway will open tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. for the scheduled Sunday, August 31 card.

The box will stay open until Friday at 2:00 p.m. First race post time for the Sunday card is 11:00 a.m.

With assistance from OHHA, the NCRHHA and several local sponsors, QER is able to host races where there is, according to a Quinte spokesperson, "something for everyone."

Purses on the card will range from $400 to $800. The program's special race will be the Ted Huntbach Memorial Pace.

Prizes and coolers will be offered for each race.

All inquires should be directed to Gina Hannah or race secretary Marty Cousins 613-968-3266. Horsemen are advised to leave a message if nobody picks up the call.

The races on the Sunday card will not be charted. Horsemen are also advised that the first 30 horses entered will be accepted.

All horses participating must be qualified and drivers/trainers properly licensed.
