Default Belmont Cancelled 7/20

Well, this is interesting. Due to the fire yesterday, the track is experiencing electrical problems. No air conditioning in the Jockey's Room. It's off to Saratoga.

that's too bad. Is NYRA saving money for those increased purses at the Spa? LOL

Those stupid asses couldn't rent one of these for the jock room power supply for one day? Mismanaged crew there for sure...even a high school or pop warner program could have figured this solution!

Agreed....pretty frigging stupid. Most of the management and electricians must already be at the Spa.

No air conditioning in CASA FATMAN either.

Not like the jocks don't need to sweat off some pounds.
