Xtreme-ly Unique Races Coming Up
The Xtreme Series will be making stops at a number racetracks across Ontario over the course of the weekend, with trotters and pacers straying from the traditional one-mile distance in those events
.
Georgian Downs’s program on Friday, October 29 will feature a single division of the Xtreme Sprint Series – a five-eighths mile affair for pacers. Linatawa N is listed as the 9-5 favourite in the $7,000 tilt, which has been carded as Race 8 on the 10-race program
Flamboro Downs will host the Xtreme Sprint Series on Sunday, October 31, as eight pacers will line up behind the starting gate in Race 6 in what will be a half-mile sprint for a purse of $7,000.
Western Fair Raceway will also host the Xtreme Sprint Series on Tuesday, November 2. Seven pacers will battle in the half-mile affair which will be a bit more than a “blink and you’ll miss it” contest. It has been carded as Race 12.
Kawartha Downs has a great-looking line up scheduled for Tuesday, November 2 as the province’s top three-year-old trotting colts and geldings will go head-to-head in the last $130,000 O.S.S. Gold Series Final of the season. The card will also feature the Xtreme Sprint – a five-eighths mile sprint which has attracted eight pacers. That $7,000 skirmish has been carded as Race 7 on the 11-race program.
