Sam Houston Race Park was forced to cancel its stakes-laden Texas Champions Day card after the second race Saturday night when a transformer blew, and will not hold its final four days of racing, citing the COVID-19 pandemic. Its 2020 Quarter Horse meet set to start Apr. 10 has also been cancelled. “We share in the disappointment this creates throughout the Texas racing industry and for our valued customers and employees,” said Sam Houston Vice President and General Manager Dwight Berube. “Sam Houston Race Park looks forward to a time when our entire community can once again enjoy great racing.”
