2020 Dexter Cup, Lady Suffolk Cancelled

Officials with Freehold Raceway have announced the cancellation of the 2020 editions of the Dexter Cup Trot and Lady Suffolk Trot.

The cancellations come due to the continued closure of live racing and shelter in place orders from Governor Phil Murphy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The finals for both races had been scheduled for Saturday, May 2.

All nominating and sustaining payment refunds will be handled by the Hambletonian Society in accordance with published race conditions.

“We looked at possible alternate dates, but with an already crowded fall stakes season and other tracks looking to move signature races to the fall, cancelling the races became the best option for this year,” Freehold Raceway General Manager Howard Bruno has said.
