From what I hear, the rain was no worse than normal, and they probably could have ran yesterday. Seems like they really jumped the gun and wasted a raceday for nothing.
Racing on "wet" tracks is part of the game, and has been for as long as there has been racing on dirt. Except for dire circumstances, NYRA should let the horseplayer decide with their wallets if they wish to deal with the idiosyncricies that come along with playing wet tracks, not the other way around. There are plenty of other choices out there on a normal day.
