Weather is bad. Don't think they should have raced the first couple for the safety of the horseman and horses.
Thanks for the info.

NJ The best

                        On making one of the worst decisions most people have witnessed .Biden would be proud.

With a hurricane with multiple tornadoes in it- bearing down- with biblical downpours predicted--they decide to conduct racing=whereas previously with much less dire predicitions--they cancelled-some when even the sun was shining.
Of course after 3 races-they had to cancel for fear of being either blown/sliding off the track or causing a major accident.
Many horsemen-then had to go home-many being stuck-some with horses--for many hours on flooded roads--some stuck for 6 hours at a standstill.
Good news however--all the grooms/staff/track workers were paid-and the track veterinarian went home with pockets full of lasix money-which cost him maybe 200$-but he collected $1000's-while those horses never raced-with no refunds for about the umteenth time this year..
