Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted July 21, 2022 Journalists Share Posted July 21, 2022 Due to excessive heat forecast for the Mid-Atlantic region, and with an abundance of caution for its horses, horsemen and fans, the Maryland Jockey Club will not host live racing at Laurel Sunday, July 24. Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-90s through the weekend with near-record highs approaching 98 degrees forecast for Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. Races that were in the condition book and all extras for Sunday will now be used for an additional live program Thursday, July 28. Entries will be taken Saturday, July 23. Laurel Park will remain open Sunday for simulcasting. Live action is scheduled to return to Laurel Park with an eight-race program Friday starting at 12:40 p.m. The post Laurel Cancels Sunday Program Ahead of Excessive Heat Forecast appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
