Who'll Stop The Rain.. at SA (Fri. Cancelled..)

[favoritetrick]

Hi all, relatively new here. Been reading since October, finally posting.

An update from an ESPN production manager at SA I know:
Right now, they say they're running tomorrow. However, the track, as I understand it, is a MESS...I quote, "It looks like gravel".

The area is suppossed to be clear of rain until late tomorrow afternoon, and the track says they will be working on the track all day and night tonight. Apparently, although they have to more or less take the top two inches off the track, there's nothing to actually replace that with, is the issue.

Assuming the track claims it is race ready I still would hazard to guess a boatload of scratches and the jockeys possibly refusing to ride after seeing the track condition.
