I'm crossing my fingers to have Zia back to the exchange markets at least on Mondays and Tuesdays, the days with less racetracks running. Next October and November on Monday and Tuesday we are going to have just 4 racetracks the first two days of the week, Parx, Turf, Finger and Mountaineer.
Zia is owned by Penn National, like Charles Town, Sam Houston and Mahoning Valley, so I believe that the problem here is the mixed racecard with quarter horse racing. However, Zia Park and Sunland were alway here all days of the week with mixed racecards until 2 or 3 years ago. As a loyal exchange customer I don't care if the quarter horse races have low liquidity. The important thing for me is to have those racetracks here, because there are great opportunities in their thoroughbred races. One alternative is to offer on exchange just the thoroughbred races for these meetings with mixed racecards. |

Emerald Downs has been added to the schedule for Sun 22 Aug. They are mid-way through their season and race Thu/Sat/Sun through to Sun 05 Sep then Sat/Sun through to Sun 26 Sep. Sun they race daylight although right on the west cost so still late for us. Thu/Sat they night race which would mean first post for us around 2am. Will be interesting to see if all cards are covered going forwards.

Canterbury not loaded so far for tonight Wed 25 Aug. Probably because they have 4 Quarterhorse races on the card.

Finger Lakes is running today, Mon 06 Sep, but not covered on Betfair. Monmouth and Remington haven't been covered for some time now and seem to have dropped out of the list of regulars.

Finger Lakes have confirmed they won't be running on Thursdays during the month of Sep. They hope to add Thu from October but this remains TBC.

Prairie Meadows has popped into the schedule for tonight. They race nighttime mixed Quarter Horse and Thoroughbred cards most Mon/Fri/Sat/Sun from May through to Sat 25 Sep.

Parx have added a special racing date on Sat 25 Sep featuring eight stakes races including the Pennsylvanian Derby.

Prairie Meadows made an appearance, then it was gone. First few races quarterhorse last 8 or so thoroughbreds but far too difficult for Betfair to leave those races up.

In the past they used to have a separate Quartehorse meeting, I didn't know that now they have mixed cards.
