Woodbine Entertainment would like to issue a reminder to the Standardbred racing community of its policies for participants who have recently traveled outside the country and seek to race at Woodbine Mohawk Park.
Participants arriving from an outside country or permanent residents returning to Canada will be allowed access to race at Woodbine Mohawk Park under the following conditions:
1) Complete a successful 14-day isolation period before 6 p.m. on race night and pass the COVID-19 screening process at Woodbine Mohawk Park. Proof of date of arrival into Canada is required to be presented to the Director of Standardbred Racing in advance of race night. Day 1 of the isolation period is the day of arrival into Canada.
2) Receipt and proof of “Quarantine Exemption” (e-mail or paper notice) at the Canadian Border AND results of a negative COVID-19 test conducted in Canada upon arrival to be presented to the Director of Standardbred Racing.
It is highly recommended that foreign participants or permanent residents returning to Canada not attend Training Centres until the results of a negative COVID-19 test are received, thereby not putting the racing community at risk.
Any participants with questions or concerns are asked to contact Bill McLinchey, Director of Standardbred Racing, at [email protected].
