Louisiana Downs has cancelled Thursday's seven-race card in Bossier City, La., due to freezing temperatures and an abundance of precipitation.
The National Weather Service has issued a flood watch for the area, lasting through 6:00 p.m. (Central) on Thursday. Precipitation may accumulate between a quarter and a half inch, and the high temperature will be around 40 degrees.
“As always, the safety of our human and equine athletes is our main priority,” the track's statement reads.
Live racing will resume on Friday, Feb. 3, with seven races beginning at 1:35 p.m. Central.
