Nothing this afternoon for your Big A.

In the annals of turf history, there’ve been some standard reasons for cancellation — extreme temperatures (in either direction), washed-out main-tracks, jockey strikes, power outages.

But from Ozone Park, N.Y., comes word that an accidentally severed communications cable has done in today’s activity at Aqueduct. Hoo-boy.

Not to worry. Still forever free and clear at Gulfstream and Santa Anita.

Rundown
Gulfstream 5, 6, 9
Santa Anita 5, 6, 7

On the pay side…

Rundown
Laurel 3, 5, 8
Tampa 4, 5, 10
Oaklawn 1, 6, 7
Golden Gate 2, 4, 7

WMF Report: Wow. No 6f races today at ’Gulf or Laurel. …Oaklawn is speedy enough at 6f, WMF 152. …Rally-alert continues at Tampa at 1m40y, WMF 25, and 1m (T), WMF 17. …

Bye-bye.
