The constant 40-50mph winds, with gusts up to 70mph, have made an unsafe environment for the horses, horsemen and operations staff to conduct a proper racing program. The high winds and drastically low humidity have also brought on high fire danger. Already, one small grass fire has been extinguished on property this afternoon by Remington Park staff.
"Remington Park and Oklahoma horsemen pride themselves on putting on the racing program regardless of the massive ups and downs caused by our weather," said Matt Vance, executive vice president of racing.
