As the world around horse racing changes, this week the on-track offerings remain the same as a few dedicated tracks forge on, running behind closed doors and with enhanced safety measures to prevent the spread of coronavirus.

Seven tracks -- five with Thoroughbred meets and two Quarter Horse circuits -- are scheduled to race this week, while wagering will also be offered for overseas events in Australia and Japan.

We recommend playing through TVG, where new members can make a $200 risk-free bet. Also check out Today's Best Bet for daily wagering tips.

 Among the highlights, Fonner Park in Nebraska will on Tuesday (Runza) and Wednesday (Dowd Mile) host a pair of stakes features. They attracted fields of nine and 10 runners, respectively.

 The first 2-year-old races of the season are set at Gulfstream Park, which will send the baby fillies 4 1/2 furlongs in Thursday's second race before the colts get their chance on Friday. Yes, trainer Wesley Ward has entries in both events.

 On Friday, Oaklawn Park hosts a pair of Arkansas-bred stakes for 3-year-olds. The Rainbow Miss runs as Race 5 before the Rainbow as Race 9.

 That same afternoon at Gulfstream, consider this one to watch: Chad Brown-trained Fortin Hill, who won races in October of 2018 and June of 2019 to start 2-for-2, makes his allowance return in the ninth race feature. We'll see if the former $575,000 purchase can hold it together for a campaign.
