Yes, The weather can be somewhat suffient just like Aqueduct in the winter. The reason I suggest Persident's day is that that is a big day for them and I believe that canceling three of the last six years is more of an aboration. They have there reasons why they start in mid January. Most of it to do with there 3 year old races and the Derby. It just seems odd that a premier track and meet that only runs a three month meet runs half of it in the middle of winter where weather will always be a challenge so to speak.
I am not saying its broke. It seams like they are more than willing to deal with the cancelations and weather so they can end the meet in early April 3 or 4 weeks before the derby.
