It was like HELL those few days..
Hey I was in Jersey that day and it was hotter here. I realize not everyone would've gone to the track but technically they didn't make up that day. Much of the handle for Toga is simulcast and that wouldn't have been affected. Also, the horses and jockeys are the most important aspect and from everything I can gather, most of them felt running was the correct decision. I'll defer to them.
