Monday’s Grand Circuit card at Plainridge is canceled

Plainville, MA — Due to a developing Nor’easter storm that is predicted to bring high winds and heavy rain to the entire eastern seaboard on Sunday (Oct. 12) and Monday (Oct. 13), the Massachusetts Gaming Commission has approved the recommendation made by Plainridge Park to cancel live harness racing on Monday (Oct. 13), out of an abundance of caution for those shipping horses from multiple states and the expected daytime weather conditions on Monday that would not be conducive to safe racing.

The four Grand Circuit races are canceled and will not be rescheduled. The overnight events that were carded are canceled as well. Classes will be added to the condition sheet for Thursday (Oct. 16) and Friday (Oct. 17) draws.
