A true shame. Weather has not been kind this last year to big days.

Of course, I'm the worst turf handicapper on the planet, so they probably saved me a few bucks.

Default Track Maintenance

Hello,

Wanted to share this article in the hope it gets consideration in advance of tomorrow's races. Not sure this is the right place on the Forum, but with the rain today and Steve at track hope it gets due consideration to ensure the safety of all involved tomorrow.

I'll stick to the Pimlico Special/PrReakness Double now they are off the turf today.

Even the Graded Stakes are off the turf... Geesh.. what the heck are they saving their turf course for if not for Graded Stakes.. Maybe the 4 horse workouts that masqurade for races on a daily basis... This track is in BIG TROUBLE... Given the fact that today USUALLY is their second biggest handle and their handle this year is paltry I have to wonder who is at the helm...

I'd caution those admonishing Pimlico to relent a bit...

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..
