Breeder's Track Conditions
The forecast from the National Weather Service for Monday night and Tuesday was grim. Remnants of Hurricane Wilma, plus another storm, were expected to combine to bring an inch of rain to the area near Belmont Park. Wind gusts, some predicted to reach 50 miles per hour, were forecast for Tuesday along with rain, which was expected to last into Wednesday. After that, though, the forecast was quite promising. It was expected to be sunny and cool Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, with highs in the mid-50's. If that forecast holds, expect the main track to be fast Saturday, with the turf course soft.
