How This Dundas Guide Checks Its Facts

This page explains who writes the guide, where its facts come from, and why some numbers never appear. It also covers the two small tools on the site. One reads the listed table hours, the other measures distances from Dundas.

Part 1

Who writes the guide

The Race Night Desk, the guide's editorial team, writes and checks this guide. It signs collectively, with no named author. There is no email address and no contact form here.

This site exists because a night at Flamboro depends on the day of the week. Elements Casino Flamboro sits beside Flamboro Downs, a harness track at 967 Highway 5 West. The race calendar still has the final word. We wanted one plain place that answers what a given evening there looks like.

Where the facts come from

Facts on this site come from venue pages, the AGCO, iGaming Ontario, OLG and the racing press. Each one is stored with its source. The current round of checks was done in October 2026.

When two sources give different numbers, the number stays out. That is why the guide prints no slot or table counts. It is also why Flamboro Downs is described only as running since the 1970s, and why some hours are missing. Mohawk and Toronto hours, for example, differ from page to page on their own sites.

Dates can change, and a card can be cancelled. So the guide never promises racing on a particular night. Check the race calendar before heading out.

Part 3

The planner and the distance dial

The planner reads the live table hours Elements Casino Flamboro lists, then checks Ontario time in your browser. The casino floor itself is always open. It shows how those hours line up with the clock, nothing more. On holidays especially, the venue's own page is the one to check.

Distances come from a dial that works on coordinates. Central Dundas sits at 43.2661,-79.9547, and each racetrack point stands in for the casino beside it. Every figure is a straight line, not a road distance. Both tools run in the browser, and nothing is sent anywhere.

Part 4

Posters and photographs

Each flat, night-coloured poster illustration is the work of an image generator. Three depict real places, drawn from real photographs that kept their shape and signs. They show the MOHAWK entrance canopy at Woodbine Mohawk Park, the Flamboro entrance canopy on a race night and an empty Flamboro slot aisle. A floodlit horse and sulky, a race programme on the rail and the escarpment over Dundas show no particular track or casino. Even the sulky driver is imagined.

Six casino pages carry real photographs from Wikimedia Commons, freely licensed, with photographer and licence beneath each. Toronto's Woodbine building photo had its advertising billboard blanked, and nothing else changed. No one pictured is a real casino guest or staff member. Image sources, below, lists author, licence, file and any change for every photograph.
