No blame here. It's raining upstate and NYC is expected to get far worse weather than Albany. It's a perfectly sound decision in light of the card scheduled for Sat. I'm planning on driving down to Belmont tomorrow, I just hope they race...

Honestly, NYRA has not been able to catch a break from the weatherman all season. Almost all the rain (outside the monsoon that was the 1st three weeks at SAR) has fallen on weekends this year.

Man I hope they can get things together for tomorrow. I would really hate to see the fields scratch down. Such potential tomorrow. Good luck to the boys at NYRA to get things together for a great day of racing...
