With entries now being accepted for the 2025 London Classic Yearling Sale, The Raceway at Western Fair District has announced a new series slated for this May.
The new London Classic Sale Series for both trotters and pacers will kick off on May 12 & 13, featuring two legs and a quartet of $40,000 (guaranteed) finals to be raced on Camluck Classic night, Friday, May 30.
This series replaces the long-running City of London Series and is open to both Ontario-sired trotters and pacers, four year olds and younger, who are non-winners of $10,000 lifetime as of March 1, 2025. The nomination fee remains $200 (or $160 USD) per horse and the nomination form is available by clicking here.
“The London Classic Yearling Sale supports the event which will offer bolstered purses for each of the finals,” said Greg Blanchard, Director of Equine Programming at Western Fair District. “Supporting the local industry is important to us and this helps us do that while invigorating a series of races that has been traditionally important to our local horsepeople.”
Nominations for the London Classic Sale Series close on April 1, 2025.
Sellers and consignors are also reminded that the deadline to enter this year’s London Classic Yearling Sale is Monday, April 21.
