For the fifth consecutive year, Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races is providing funding to CANTER Mid-Atlantic for the organization's ongoing program and mission to rehabilitate and find homes for former racehorses.

The $10,000 donation will be made during a presentation April 19 when the West Virginia track hosts Charles Town Classic night.

The additional funds and renewed commitment by Charles Town will enable CANTER Mid-Atlantic to grow from a free racehorse sales listing service and racehorse rehabilitation provider to an emergency care provider for at-risk race horses it would otherwise have been forced to turn away, officials said

"On average, we have seen four former CANTER Mid-Atlantic horses—either Charles Town Races track listings or ex-racehorses that have gone through our Phase II training program—compete in recognized events throughout the Mid-Atlantic region," CANTER Mid-Atlantic executive director Allie Conrad said. "That would not happen if it wasn't for the wonderful dedication and support that we have received from Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races
