Strong work by Andy. Despite his DT persona, the guy is a true professional.

Default Weather Update

Rained heavily overnight in Elmont and the Belmont main is very sloppy at this hour... More storms appear to be in the area with the greatest chance for extra precip coming before noon. It doesn't appear that the sun will shine and there isn't any wind, so drying the track out completely by the Belmont's 6:35pm post may not be possible. Monitor the main track's progress carefully as the day goes on, because there is a possibility we could have a very heavy, 'peanut buttery' main by late this afternoon. Anticipate grass courses may be yielding, but check update HERE by 7:30a...

The Belmont Stakes can't catch a break. The two winners finally meet, there's buzz etc., and now the weather is not playing nice.

It's been that way all year in NY - first a horrible winter and now (not that it's any surprise) a rainy, ugly spring.
