Sam Houston Race Park in Houston announced Sunday it has canceled its final four dates of the Thoroughbred meet that was to close this coming Saturday, as well as its full meet for Quarter Horses that was to open April 10.
The decision was made due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“We share in the disappointment this creates throughout the Texas racing industry and for our valued customers and employees. Sam Houston Race Park looks forward to a time when our entire community can once again enjoy great racing.” Dwight Berube, vice presdient and general manager of Sam Houston, said in a statement.
