There will be a change of date for the second legs of the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes and Stallion Series for three-year-old trotting colts at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania. 

Originally scheduled for Saturday, June 7, those stakes will now be held a day later, during an evening card at Pocono on Sunday, June 8.

These Sire Stakes and Stallion Series events was scheduled for Saturday, June 7, but so are the first Sire Stakes and Stallion Series legs for three-year-old pacing fillies at The Meadows. To give maximum opportunity to stables having horses at this high level, the Pennsylvania Harness Horsemen’s Association (PHHA), in conjunction with the Pennsylvania State Horse Racing Commission’s Bureau of Standardbred Racing (the official overseeing body of these programs), the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association (MSOA), and the racetracks and race offices involved decided it was best to move the sophomore colt trotters back one day, to a scheduled card when Pocono would be normally presenting a 6 p.m. program.

If there are any further questions, contact the Pennsylvania Horse Racing Commission’s Standardbred Bureau or the race offices or horsemen’s association at either of the racetracks involved.
