Fort Erie is in Ontario, across the Niagara River from Buffalo. We handicap Thoroughbred racing only. This guide does not share statistics yet; we will add numbers from our race chart database once we have enough Fort Erie charts for them to mean something.
The Track Itself
Fort Erie sits on the Niagara River across from Buffalo, New York, and runs a meet from spring into the fall on dirt and turf. It hosts the Prince of Wales Stakes, the second leg of the Canadian Triple Crown.
Woodbine Form Needs Translating
Many Fort Erie horses also race at Woodbine, where the main track is synthetic. Synthetic form does not always carry over to Fort Erie's dirt, so check what surface a horse's best races came on.
Small Fields
Fort Erie often runs smaller fields, which tends to mean shorter prices. Passing races without a real edge matters more here than at deeper tracks.
The Takeaway
At Fort Erie, check the surface behind every good race in a horse's form.
