Remington Cancels Monday, Tuesday Cards Due To Winter Weather Conditions

Remington Park has postponed both of its 10-race cards for Monday and Tuesday, Dec 14 & 15, due to winter weather and freezing conditions experienced since Sunday morning. The programs will move in their entirety to next week on Dec. 21 & 22, respectively.

After a heavy snowfall ended at nightfall on Sunday, temperatures plummeted into the teens overnight, forcing a frozen track situation. Monday racing had been postponed from Noon to 2:30pm. However, at 2pm, track management announced the cancellation of the program.

More winter weather is expected to arrive in central Oklahoma overnight with snow and freezing conditions. Therefore, racing for Tuesday, Dec. 15 has been postponed in advance.

Both of the programs for Monday, Dec. 14 and Tuesday, Dec. 15, are being moved to Monday, Dec. 21 and Tuesday, Dec. 22, respectively. The first race both days will be at Noon.
