Note 1: Carpool to Robinson Flat is suggested due to very limited parking near the checkpoint. A bus is available from the pass checkpoint at Sailor Flat, about 2 miles from Robinson.
Note 2: Robinson Flat checkpoint CLOSES at 1:30pm. Foresthill CLOSES at 10:00pm. No riders will be allowed out after the checkpoint closing time.
"Gate" = when criteria reached, present horse for P&R check. (Criteria must be met within 30 minutes of arrival.)
"Gate to Hold" = hold time begins at completion of the P&R check (not at the IN-Timer and not after the Vet Exam.)
Haggin Cup exams are held on Sunday at 10:00AM -- All First Ten Horses should be presented and must remain at the Fairgrounds after finishing to qualify.
