With 7mtp! what a joke. Theres 150k in wps and ex's already not to mention piks already bet and its a part of the magna 5. Now they have to wait to seal the track? All trainers should scratch their horses out of the race

Unfortunately, they can't control the weather. I just left there and it is nasty out and has been raining steadily for about an hour.

p.s. I have pick 3's alive.

It's beyond belief. An utter embarrassment.

Bullschit.. It's an "ALL" payout in the P4's, P3's and Double. Anything else would be felonious. And they knew there were thunderstorms coming. I phucking forecast the damn thing at 7:30am for crist sake. They should have taken it off the turf WELL BEFORE the start of the P4 the way NYRA does to give horseman the chance to scratch and players a chance to make decisions. This is at least the 2nd time they've pulled this stunt. The place is hopeless.

No All payout on the exotics. That is unbelievable.

How do you pay out to that winner in a pk4? That's garbage.

It's kind of amusing that the eventual winner of the race was 9-0-0-0 lifetime on turf and synthetics ... and his lone career dirt race was a very good 2nd at 13/1 odds splitting a pair of next out winners and running a dirt figure that made him the fields most likely winner on dirt.

Oh, I agree.. I was simply stating that they can't control weather.

I was talking to a friend of mine before the 8th and he liked a horse in the last race, but was afraid they may take it off the turf, so he didn't play the P3. That's when I said to him to look at the clouds and any imbecile can see it is going to rain for a while. Plus with weather technology the way it is, they certainly knew it was coming. Like you said, they should have made the call before the 7th. Unfortunately the rules in New York don't apply in Fla., but they should change it so it does

It's their FL state law and it's happened once already this year and I was reminded of another time 2 years ago by Andy.

It's pathetic. And as I said, felonious.

The tenth race has been taken off the turf. The decision was made with the field in the paddock. That means anybody who bet late pick-3's, pick'4-s, daily doubles and the pick-6 are all stuck with their selections made for the grass. According to track management, the jockeys declined to ride the finale on the turf after returning from The Very One.
