Atlantic Sires Stakes To Kick Off Friday

The 2019 Atlantic Sires Stakes season is set to kick off as Truro Raceway will play host to the three-year-old pacing fillies division on Friday evening.

Two 'A' divisions will each be contested for a purse of $10,220 each, while one 'B' division has a $2,500 purse.

The Atlantic Sires Stakes program, the first of its kind in Canada, was formed over fifty years ago to promote the Standardbred horse industry in Atlantic Canada. Today, the program showcases the best young horses in the region and offers participants and spectators the finest in harness racing action.

Atlantic Sires Stakes events will take place at racetracks throughout Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island this year. Points earned in each 'A' division event will go towards securing a coveted position in the season-ending Atlantic Breeders Crown Championships.

First race post time at Truro Raceway on Friday is 6:30 p.m. To view the entries, click the following link: Friday Entries - Truro Raceway.
