Dream of Glory Race Day – Change in Post Time
HANOVER, ON - June 29, 2020 - Hanover Raceway has been granted a post time change by the AGCO for Saturday, August 1st, moving the post time from the originally scheduled 6:15 pm to their regular post-time this season of 2:00 pm.
This race date features the Dream of Glory final, the Raceway's signature race. Hanover Raceway General Manager Steve Fitzsimmons said the board felt given the situation with Covid-19, that this was the most sensible course of action. "Our board waited as long as we could to try and have the traditional fireworks display following our Dream of Glory card, but Covid-19 restrictions will not allow for us to congregate at the present time for such an event. It traditionally draws 5,000 people. They therefore cancelled the fireworks for this season. With our success to date in the 2:00 pm post time slot, we felt that without the fireworks, we would shift our post time back to our regular time this season."
