first post time

Del Mar will move up its first post time from 4p.m. to 3:30p.m for Aug. 11. The adjustment has been put in place with consultation from the Southern California jockey colony and with approval by the California Horse Racing Board. The shift in post time will provide for better viewing conditions--due to sunlight--for riders. The modification to first post on Friday, should allow the final race on the card to finish at approximately 7 p.m. (PT)
