Los Alamitos has canceled its Saturday evening program of Quarter Horses and lower-level Thoroughbreds because of a forecast of extensive rain. The decision was announced on Friday, a day after Santa Anita canceled racing on Saturday and Sunday for the same reason. Los Alamitos did not have a Sunday program scheduled because of Easter. Saturday’s eight-race program included five 220-yard maiden races for 2-year-olds that were designed as prep races for time trials for the Robert Adair Kindergarten Fuuturity on April 21. The final will be run in May. Los Alamitos will resume racing on April 6, with a program that includes the $30,000 James Smith Memorial Stakes for 3-year-olds at 350 yards. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
