Woodbine Entertainment has announced today’s card of live racing at Woodbine Racetrack is cancelled due to poor air quality.
Environment Canada’s air quality index for Toronto is listed as ‘High Risk’ and is expected to remain at this level throughout Friday. Woodbine’s decision to cancel comes through consultation with the HBPA and is consistent with the AGCO’s air quality guidelines.
Woodbine will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as required.
The next card of live racing is scheduled for Saturday afternoon at 1:10 p.m.
