I believe they both ran some weekdays before the pandemic. Hastings shows a couple of weeks of Mon-Tue racing in late August on their calendar.
It's very difficult now to find a "bettable" card, IMHO, for most tracks in North America. Thask mentioned he has trouble finding weekday cards worth betting, but I can't even find very many cards on the weekends worth going through. Seeing races with 10+ horses restricted to state breds, maiden claimers or turf races (which often find many scratches/MTO horses), it's racing's "Big Days" now, and that's about it.
Even Australia and Hong Kong have been fielding races with fewer entrants. Contraction appears to be arriving pretty quickly now.
