It's not be a question of trying to "save" the turf course, though there are 2 graded stakes on the grass tomorrow that would take precedent over the 2 listed stakes today...

A soggy turf course is a recipe for breakdowns the day you race over it as horses tire unexpectedly, and even more so the NEXT day when the divots and hoof holes firm up and horses step in them and break legs..
Didn't look at it that way... We don't need any breakdowns this weekend...
