G1 Saratoga Derby and G1 Fourstardave to be carded for Sunday

by Pat McKenna



With heavy rain associated with Tropical Storm Debby forecast to impact Saratoga Springs on Friday and Saturday, the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) will add the Grade 1, $500,000 FanDuel Fourstardave Handicap and Grade 1, $600,000 Saratoga Derby Invitational as contingency races for Sunday, August 11.

Should weather force races off the turf on Saturday, August 10, then NYRA will aim to run the Fourstardave and Saratoga Derby as the final two races on Sunday, August 11. To allow for increased flexibility, those races will fall outside of all horizontal wagers.

NYRA is monitoring weather forecasts closely and will provide updates as necessary.
