That would be nice. Not a lot of rain on the radar right now, but the forecast calls for scattered showers and thunderstorms in the area pretty much all day. This is getting old.

I can't speak to all the races, but I know that the 8th is off the turf.

They will be off today, for certain, and from the looks of things, through tomorrow ( I suppose there is a chance we keep the stake on soft turf ). Frankly, considering Friday's forecast, I doubt we will be on the turf before Sunday if not later.

I agree. Can't see it getting taken off unless the track floods between now and then.
