Evangeline Downs Cancels Final Three Races Saturday Due to Weather

OPELOUSAS, LA—OCTOBER 21, 2017—Inclement weather forced Evangeline Downs to cancel the final three races on their Saturday night program.

Races one thru six were conducted over a sloppy (sealed) racetrack with rain showers.

Among the races canceled tonight was the $30,000-Guaranteed Billy Montgomery Stakes (Race 8).

 Evangeline Downs will continue live Quarter Horse racing on Wednesday (Oct. 25) with a nine-race card. Post time will be 5:35 pm Central Time.
