If I'm not mistaken this is the first time this rule has been used since it was implemented. That's mainly because the track super at NYRA does a great job and rarely has to take multiple races off the turf in the middle of the card.
It sucks for the people who were 4-4 but the majority of them certainly used turf horses who were scratched and they might have been forced to land on PT favorites they didn't like. I have been victimized by the lack of off the turf provisions in South Florida and that certainly felt like a kick in the ass.
