How hot can it be?
For them to continue to race? I remember a couple years back Saratoga closed one day because it was too hot. Today has to be as same as it was that day, which was also a weekday. I wonder if this was a consideration for today?
Anyone know the standard that they use to determine if racing can go on?

No racetrack could be hotter than Louisiana Downs.

Its hotter than Hades down here. Its amazing what horses can endure, especially @ LAD where they run during the hottest part of the day.

The problem here is you get the heat, the sun plus a massive dose of humidity. So not only do you bake, but you stick as well... it's just all around miserable.
That said, while others are digging out of the snow, I'm teeing up a golf ball.
