Officials at Tioga Downs would like to advise horsepeople that the deadline for nominations to all of Tioga Downs’ late-closing events has been extended to Friday, April 15.

Both pacing series occur entirely before the New York Sire Stakes season begins, thus making for a convenient and lucrative trio of prep races through the month of May.

The trotting series coincide with the Empire Breeders Classic events at Vernon in June, enabling three-year-old trotters to remain fit during the lull in NYSS events.

The nomination blank is available here.

Stakes payments to these stakes can also be made through SC Stakes Online. Click here for more info on how to get started.
