The lingering effects from winter storm Landon forced the Maryland Jockey Club to cancel their nine-race race card originally scheduled for February 5 at Laurel Park.
Aside from the winter storm, which passed through the Mid-Atlantic region on Thursday and Friday, freezing temperatures and wind chill were contributing factors to the cancellations.
Laurel’s planned partial ARC simulation presentation from San Isidro has also been cancelled.
Laurel, Pimlico racetrackRosecroft and MJC’s OTB network remain open for simulation.
The live action is slated to return to Laurel with eight races on Feb. 6. Posting time is 12:25 p.m. ET.
