Post time for the race is approximately 5:30 p.m. (ET). Although the race is not open to the majority of Canadian horse racing fans for wagering purposes, the dash is open to residents of Alberta.

Handicappers from far and wide were recruited by HANA in an experiment which could ultimately lead to the fans of the sport having more of an influence on some of the decisions that are made in the racing industry.
