Is turf racing done for the year, or is there some possibility that Saturday & Sunday's races might stay on?

Any word yet as to when they will be shifting to the Inner?

Hoping they're just off today for a better going Saturday, where three races are listed for the turf: two allowance with full entries, and the opener, for MDN 2yos.

Not sure of the exact day when the Inner opens, but it's usually early December.

Condition book has the Inner Dirt starting 12/3 and turf racing ending 12/7. The weather just hasn't been cooperating here over the last 2 weeks.

Main track still listed as muddy, forecast highs only in the 30's both today and tomorrow with tonight's low in the mid-20's. My guess is off-the-turf again tomorrow. Supposed to be warmer Sunday, that's more likely to be the day they return to the turf course.

Wednesday entries are posted, and they are starting on the Inner that day. They've got a couple of turf races carded for Wednesday, so I guess they haven't given up altogether on turf at AQ...maybe this weekend will stay ON.

I would be very surprised if they're on the grass course tomorrow. Course is still saturated with moisture and temperatures are predicted to be sub-freezing from approximately 6 pm tonight til 10 am.
