With the field for the Aug. 4 GII National Museum of Racing Hall of Fame S. at Saratoga Race Course circling in the paddock for several minutes due to lightning, New York Racing Association (NYRA) officials decided to cancel the remainder of Friday's card due to inclement weather. Races 8-11, including the Hall of Fame S., were called off at approximately 5:15 p.m. ET.

The race prior, the GIII Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Oaks Invitational S. won by Elusive Princess (Martinborough {Jpn}), did run as expected, although it was contested in pouring rain.

Saturday's racing, which includes the GI Whitney S. and two other Grade I events, is expected to be conducted as usual. The Hall of Fame S. has been rescheduled for Friday, Aug. 11 with entries to be drawn on Sunday, Aug. 6.
