With the inaugural Camluck Classic slated for this Saturday (May 26) at The Raceway at The Western Fair District, fans and participants will have more ways to tune into the six-figure invite than ever before.
As the card kicks off at 6:55 p.m. and patrons file into the grandstand in London, tune into Sky Racing in Australia or watch the live online stream, a special one-hour broadcast dedicated to the race will start at 10:30 p.m. and be available on the SC website. Produced by Woodbine Entertainment and streamed through Facebook Live, the show will be co-hosted by Woodbine's Jason Portuondo and Mark McKelvie and will include a feature story on Camluck and Seelster Farms. The show will also be featured on the Facebook pages of Woodbine and Western Fair.
The Camluck Classic has been carded as the final dash on the program (Race 12), which has an estimated post time of 11:10 p.m. (EDT). The one-hour show will feature top-class fillies and mares in the Preferred 2 Handicap Pace (Race 11) as well as the Camluck Classic.
