Grand River Raceway’s 2014 signature races received 183 nominations apiece — the second-highest nominee count in the histories of both races.


The 17th annual Battle of Waterloo and sixth annual Battle of the Belles will be raced during the track’s annual Industry Day Celebration, on Monday, August 4 at 1:30 p.m.


The Battle Of Waterloo final (for Ontario-sired two-year-old pacing colts) will be contested for an estimated $180,000. The Battle of the Belles (for Ontario-sired two-year-old pacing fillies) will be contested for an estimated $120,000.


In 2014, both races returned to a three-payment eligibility system, beginning with the February nominations. The first sustaining payment must be postmarked no later than March 17.


While both races (including the eliminations, consolations and finals) will be contested at Grand River Raceway, the Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG) will handle the stakes administration. As noted on the nomination forms, all payments must be made payable to, and sent to, WEG.
