VA DERBY POST TIME CHANGED

Due to the recent cancellation of two race cards from extreme heat and a storm related power outage, Colonial Downs has modified the remaining schedule.

A full ten race program will be added to closing week festivities on Wednesday July 25th with a 5 PM (EDT) post time. A pair of races will also be added to the Virginia Derby card on July 21st and to closing night’s program on July 28th. 

As a result, first post on both occasions has been moved up by an hour, to 5 PM on Derby Day (from 6 PM), and to 6 PM on closing night (from 7 PM). The Derby card will now have 14 races including five stakes.
