The Korea Racing Authority announced Monday it will hold online-only Thursday racing events on Sept. 10 and Sept. 17.
Both days will feature eight Jeju races, with eight rounds run each day. The Thursday racing events will be conducted exclusively online — all Korea Racing Authority tracks and branch offices nationwide will keep their customer areas closed, and tickets may be purchased only through the mobile app Derby On. On each race day, ticket sales on the Derby On app will open at 9:30 a.m., with the first race starting at 1 p.m. and the last at 4:30 p.m.
Promotional events will also be held to mark the Thursday races. Customers who complete a new in-person identity verification on the Derby On app, as well as those who use Derby On on either race day, will be eligible for events including betting mileage rewards.
