Beginning Thursday, June 16, Horseshoe Indianapolis will have a first post of 2:10 p.m. on Thursdays.
The change will go into effect through the remainder of the 2022 racing season, which extends through Wednesday, Nov. 23.
“Over the past few weeks, several racetracks have changed their post times on Thursdays and caused a congested national simulcast schedule late in the day,” explained Eric Halstrom, Vice President and General Manager of Racing. “Moving our post time up to 2:10 p.m. on Thursdays will assist in eliminating so much overlap with other signals and provide better flow for our racing program.”
Initially, Thursday racing in November was moving up to 2:30 p.m. Those dates will also move to 2:10 p.m. for consistency throughout the season.
The 20th season of live Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse racing extends through Wednesday, Nov. 23. Live racing is conducted at 2:30 p.m. Monday through Wednesday with Thursday post times set for 2:10 p.m. A total of 12 Saturdays will feature live racing in 2022 highlighted by the 28th running of the Grade 3 $300,000 Indiana Derby and the 27th running of the Grade 3 $200,000 Indiana Oaks set for Saturday, July 9.
