Arlington Million Day ~ International runners

[ndjake]

We took another pounding of rain in Arl Heights last night on top of the heavy downpours/tornado warnings that temporarily shut down racing yesterday afternoon. More t-storms predicted for today. If my lawn is any indication, course is very soft this morning.

Also, AP set up a second rail about midway through the turf course. The racing office indicated that the wide course was to be used for turf races through million day (of which there now won't be any due to conditions) and also probably for some of the earlier non-stakes turf events (races 4 and 5) on Sat. if the course stays soft.
