The horsepeople are speaking up.
Tuesday, the Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association of Ontario and Woodbine Entertainment confirmed they finally heard back from senior levels of the Government of Ontario regarding the possibility of being permitted to complete the 2020 Thoroughbred meet at Woodbine Racetrack.
Discussions took place Tuesday and in the evening the HBPA informed its members that while there is still no definitive answer following talks, it hopes for good news Wednesday.
