Plainridge moves Thursday’s card to Friday due to excessive heat

Plainville, MA — As unseasonable heat continues to envelope the northeast and with a heat advisory in place predicting heat index values of up to 98-degrees for Plainville, the live card of harness racing originally scheduled for Thursday (Sept. 7) has been postponed and moved to Friday (Sept. 8), in an abundance of caution for the safety and well-being of the horses and horse people involved in putting on the races. Post time will remain at 2 p.m.
