Fort Erie Race Track
Horse racetrack / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fort Erie Race Track is a horse racing facility in Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada, that opened on June 16, 1897. The racetrack is often referred to as "the border oval" because of the track's proximity (barely a mile as the crow flies) to the U.S. border.[1] Its most important race is the Prince of Wales Stakes, the second leg of the Canadian Triple Crown.
