Northfield Quarantine Scratches

[Ray2000]

Does anyone know if the 13 "Scr QRTs" at Northfield last night is related to this Meadows Herpes problem?

Yes. Any horse that has raced at Meadows since 1/5 is now banned in Ohio until the situation clears. Other states are following suit.

It is related. Its a very tough situation right now over there. I have a horse racing at the Meadows and the entire stable is healthy but we're stuck not being able to go anywhere else to race and rightfully so. We were fortunate to race last Monday before all the cancellations started happening.

Looks like it's hit Miami Valley . . . .47 Scratches but they're racing anyway.
