Atypical track condition - Pace and Cap

alydar_ David · 10-06-2010, 12:27 AM

The first time I saw "frozen" as a track condition I was taken aback. But that didn't seem as odd as "heavy" or "heady" which I saw later.

Last week I saw "splendid" for the first time describing a track condition in the United States.

Today I was looking at tracks to see where I would play. I prefer fast/firm surfaces and tend to shy away from off-tracks.

Suffolk was "sloppy." So were PHA, FE and TDN.

I googled Phoenix, Arizona and saw that it was listed as sunny. Okay, Turf Paradise here we come.

I handicapped and advance bet the claiming sprints. Then I went out to run various errands and ended up at one of the local casinos (a natural segue, more of an endless loop actually).

When I finally got home I went to Philly Phonebet to see the results. Much to my surprise I discovered racing had been cancelled.

How come?

I checked the scratches/changes and this is what I saw:

Did it smell so bad that weather refused to show up?
