The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) today announced it has canceled live racing scheduled for Thursday, January 31, at Aqueduct Racetrack due to dangerously low windchill values forecast in the New York City metropolitan area.
With the National Weather Service calling for sub-zero wind chills, NYRA officials made the decision to cancel Thursday's card in advance for the benefit of horsemen and racing fans.
In addition to live racing, training at both Belmont Park and Aqueduct, including jogging barns, will also be closed on Thursday.
Aqueduct Racetrack will remain open for simulcasting and online wagering is available through NYRA Bets. Belmont Café will be closed for simulcasting on Thursday.
During this time of cold, winter weather, NYRA will have extra support staff on hand at both Aqueduct and Belmont to assist with any facility-related issues. Horsemen are instructed to contact NYRA Security (516-775-3096) with any issues during off hours.
Live racing resumes on Friday, February 1 at the Big A with an 8-race card featuring a NYRA Bets Late Pick 5 carryover of $38,520 and a single-day carryover of $19,376 in the Pick 6. First post time is 12:50 p.m.

In the eyes of Hall of Fame owner and breeder John Hettinger, there was no greater importance in the breeding and campaigning of racehorses than ensuring them with a proper and lifelong retirement once their racing careers came to a close.
