Susan said the track today was the worst it has been. Last week the track was in pretty good shape in the morning but as the temps warmed up the track came apart as it thawed. The fact that there has been no break in the weather with yet another storm coming in tonight has made it difficult to repair.

Did you happen to read the CEO from Penn Nat's comments on racing? Now what?

Thanks Chuck. With all the time missed for training so far at Pha...approximately how long would it take a horse to get back it's fitness and be ready to run again? What would be a reasonable target for a horse's next race...assuming they close this week and start back up next week.

I figure if the track is opened next week...live racing will most likely take place. How many horses based at Philly would actually be ready to race?

I understand from Chuck there is talk of a 7-10 day shut down to try and get a weather break and opportunity to work on the track. It's a very rough situation for everybody there.
