The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) has canceled Saturday’s live racing program at Aqueduct Racetrack due to a powerful winter storm forecast to impact the New York City metropolitan area.
A National Weather Service (NWS) winter storm warning goes into effect for the downstate region at 7:00 p.m. Friday and continues through 7:00 p.m. Saturday. The NWS forecast, which aligns with NYRA’s independent weather services, is calling for 8-12 inches of snow along with sustained high winds with gusts exceeding 45 mph. These conditions will produce dangerously low wind chill values on Saturday. As a result, NYRA has canceled Saturday's card in the interest of the safety of all participants.
Saturday’s featured Grade 3, $150,000 Toboggan will be re-scheduled for Saturday, February 5.
A decision regarding opening Aqueduct Racetrack for simulcasting will be made on Saturday morning.
Live racing at Aqueduct will resume on Sunday, January 30 with a nine-race card featuring the $100,000 Jimmy Winkfield. First post on Sunday is 12:20 p.m. Eastern.
NYRA Bets is the official wagering platform of Aqueduct Racetrack, and the best way to bet every race of the winter meet. Available to horseplayers nationwide, the NYRA Bets app is available for download today on iOS and Android at www.NYRABets.com.

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.
