It's freezing here! Each jurisdiction makes their own decision so nothing to argue about.
Seriously, if you think something is "bait", just ignore it. Then the fights - often about nothing - will not start!

Sad that people have to make stuff up to "prove" a negative point. For the record, the temperature in Grove City Ohio was 38F on Monday and 29F on Tuesday - MUCH higher than the forecast high of 17F at Aqueduct today. KK, there really weren't many jockeys braving the "cold" on Monday and Tuesday, there were a total of only 85 horses running in the 16 races (8 per day), that's barely 5 per race. Attachments:

Before this thread gets out of control with needless arguing, it's now closed.
There's a Cancellations thread for today.
