From Turfway Park

With a winter storm moving into Northern Kentucky, Turfway Park has canceled live racing March 7-8.

Turfway will remain open March 7 for simulcast racing until 6 p.m. EST, when the track will close. Advance wagering will be offered for later simulcast races. The track expects to be open for simulcast racing March 8.

The $50,000 Wintergreen Stakes, originally set for March 8, will likely be rescheduled but a date has not been announced. A promotion to give away Lane’s End Stakes (gr. II) commemorative glasses March 8 has been rescheduled for March 15.
