Aquecuct canceled today's card.

That seems like a LOT of cancellations for a single year.
Somebody bet on the gray!

Just so everyone knows- turf racing at the A is done for the season- so if any races in the next few days were carded for the turf- the MTO's should be able to go- and consider them in you wagers for the next few days. Not sure when they normally stop carding for the turf there.

The Big A cancelled today (not surprising- it's pretty miserable in the northeast right now):

I've got the Irish whiskey in the cabinet... and the wind chill in Beantown is around -10 F.  :OMG:

One pick today and only one chicken because I have slightly lower confidence in this one. A smallish win/show wager may be in the cards:

I imagine there will be more cancellations today... negative wind chill in the northeast!

Oaklawn has called off their opening weekend card, and the A also cancelled again today.

Sorry- I misread the posted article that contained the info for Oaklawn- Aqueduct is running today- the article was referring to Thursday's card.

I have a high regard for the Meadowlands and the management team there. They have really done good things with the track.

I know the standardbred breed is a heartier breed as well.

However, I do not think it was right for them to race horses last night.
"And Allah took a handful of southerly wind, blew His breath upon it, and created the horse.... Thou shall fly without wings, and conquer without any sword. Oh, horse" - old Bedouin saying.

Looks like Aqueduct called off the card for today via NYRA site.

 NYRA broadcasts not working since Monday's few flakes....

This past couple of weeks, there have been multiple races with fields scratched down to three.

Now, today, I saw a field of eight scratched down to TWO.  You have to wonder what's going on.

They were the only two horses that didn't run in the last 14 days!

What?  But we're in the middle of a heat wave!  It might reach 40°!

Yeah, i don't know what's going on but this season is practically a wash.
