The 123rd season of racing at the Fort Erie track in Fort Erie, ON is still scheduled to get underway with a 4:20 p.m. post time May 26.

The track reports more than 300 stall applications, slightly more than at this time last year, for the backstretch opening Sunday April 12.

However, the spread of the deadly COVID-19 virus has left Canadian and US racetracks in limbo, some having cancelled meetings or delayed openings.
