Laurel Park cancels Saturday, Sunday cards

Laurel Park has canceled racing Saturday and Sunday in anticipation of a winter storm that is expected to drop a foot of snow on the region.

Laurel does plan to race Friday, when afternoon snow showers are possible, according to weather.com. The storm is expected to intensify Friday night.

Simulcast wagering is canceled at Laurel on Saturday, but the track is tentatively scheduled to be open Sunday.

The previously drawn Saturday card will be brought back in its entirety for Monday. Double entries will be taken Monday for next Friday and Saturday.
