Balmoral Park management was forced to cancel the remainder of the Sunday, Feb. 15th harness racing program after just one race due to technical difficulties caused by the extreme cold that gripped the area on Sunday.

 

With temperatures hovering in the single digits and wind chills well below zero, a series of technical difficulties with the tracks television equipment and the ability to send its signal forced the cancellation of the regularly scheduled 10-race program. The first race was conducted with Muscular Yankee (#7) taking home the victory. Therefore, a consolation Daily Double using the #7 in race one with all the participants in race two will be considered winning tickets for Daily Double purposes.

 

The extreme cold and blizzard like conditions that have settled throughout the Midwest and East coast are expected to continue throughout the upcoming week but Balmoral & Maywood Park staff are committed to working feverishly to ensure that live racing will continue as scheduled on Thursday, Feb 19th at Maywood Park. First post will be 7:10 p.m (central).

 

The new 20 cent Jackpot Pick 6 wager will have a carryover of $2,693 for Thursday night's Maywood Park program.
