Funniest thing is reading idiots on Twitter say Texas runs in 100 degree heat, why can’t Saratoga. People are so stupid.

With all the cancellations, how does Monmouth justify running? It’s gonna be brutal this weekend. I’m in Atlantic City now and it’s already rough.

Could be getting pressure from NBC which will then crucify them in the news if horses have problems... I think running is a very bad idea considering all the cancellations and what went on out West... I am sure there are a lot of moving parts to this decision and Monmouth may have their hands tied.. They cancelled races earlier in the meet midcard due to heavy rains for the safety of the horses so this decision confuses me.. Maybe their weatherman told them there will be a breeze blowing off the ocean that will cool things down a bit. Just hoping this all comes off without a hitch BUT with the weather what it is, the amount of races and horses in that day I have real concerns.

Im taking it that the tracks that ARE running this weekend are bracing for (near) record handles?! Bc I know me some horse players, we'll flock to whatever's available.
