We had some Nor'easter type conditions at Belmont Park during the latter half of the week and the bone-chilling dampness was at its height on Sunday. While there was no turf racing all weekend, business otherwise continued pretty much as usual around here, which is a testament to all the folks who work behind the scenes to make the racetrack go.
Trainers, exercise riders, grooms, hot walkers, NYRA employees and others simply put on their wet weather gear and went about their daily jobs. We snapped a few pictures this morning and this afternoon at the track and created the slide show above. While we're not to be deterred by a little wind and water, we are looking forward to next week's forecast, which calls for sunshine and temperatures in the 60s!
*Okay, we mucked with the Postal Service motto a little in the title of this post.
