Heavy rains have forced the postponement of the Aug. 3 Saratoga Derby Invitational Stakes (G1T) and Troy Stakes (G2T) at Saratoga Race Course until Aug. 10 at the Upstate New York track.
Saturday’s Lure Stakes has been shifted from the turf course to the sloppy main track and will be contested at a one-mile distance.
The rest of the day’s turf races, races 1, 4, 9, and 13, have also been moved to the main track.
In terms of post times, the card will still end with the 13th race at 6:50 p.m. Post time for the featured Whitney Stakes (G1) remains 5:42 p.m.
