Parx Racing in Bensalem is closed for a few days because it’s operating at the Atlantic City Race Course.
Parx horses started running in Atlantic City on Thursday and will continue through May 3.
If you want to make a road trip to check out the local ponies race at the shore, post time is at 3:30 p.m.
Under New Jersey law, Atlantic City could not offer year-round simulcasts without running a race meet, according to a story on Daily Racing Form online.
The story stated that Atlantic City track owner, Greenwood Racing – which also owns Parx Racing – has complied with the minimum requirement for racing dates to keep the track open as a simulcast site, and also on the off chance that alternative gambling, such as slot machines, might be legalized for New Jersey racetracks in the future.
Racing at Parx resumes on Saturday, April 7 at 12:25 p.m.
