Lone Star Park Cancels Remainder of Card Following Fifth Race on Friday Night Due to Inclement Weather Conditions

 

 

GRAND PRAIRIE, Texas (Friday, Nov. 20, 2009)   Following the fifth race on Friday night at Lone Star Park, the remaining four races on the card were cancelled due to inclement weather.

 

            The main track at Lone Star Park, which was labeled sloppy at the start of the night, continued to take on water due to steady rain throughout the first five races.

 

            For the safety of the horses and riders, the stewards and track management decided to cancel races 6 through 9.

 

            Live racing will return to Lone Star Park on Saturday, Nov. 21 with a first-race post time of 6:35 p.m.

 

            Lone Star Park’s 2009 Quarter Horse Fall Meeting of Champions runs until Nov. 28 with racing every Thursday through Saturday, except Thursday, Nov. 26 when there will be no live racing due to the Thanksgiving holiday. First post time for all dates will be 6:35 p.m. For more information on Lone Star Park visit LoneStarPark.com.
