Title: Big M Saturday Dec. 14
Post by: maywoodmaniac on December 13, 2013, 02:12:18 PM
An interesting card at first glance.  The big question: will they race?

The snow that's supposed to arrive in Chicago shortly is supposed to hit New York tomorrow and I've heard different stories.

Anyone know what the most recent and reliable forecast is calling for?

Saturday night hockey match up: Blackhawks in Toronto, two Original Six teams on WGN-TV.

I saw the 1-3 inch forecast before with no ice, but also saw one that said 5-8 with ice.

Lots of things up in the air if it's a sloppy track or those winds are causing a shift in strategy.

Meadowlands Closing at 6 P.M.
Saturday, December 14, 2013
Due to the forecast for the winter storm entering the area, The Meadowlands has been forced to cancel live racing this evening.  Based on the forecast anticipating the worst of the storm to take place this evening,  it is in the best interest of safety for our drivers, employees and horses to cancel the live racing program for tonight.
 
The Meadowlands will be open for simulcasting until 6:00 P.M. this evening.  Winners Bayonne will also operate for simulcasting until 6:00 P.M.
