The New York Racing Association announced that the Saturday card at Aqueduct, which included the $135,000 Interborough Stakes, will be canceled due to “arctic temperatures and sub-zero wind chill values,” per a press release.

The Interborough will be brought back on Friday, Feb. 6. New entries for the race will be taken on Saturday, Jan. 31. NYRA is still considering options for bringing back other races on the nine-race card at some point later in the meet.

Linda Rice’s domination of Aqueduct’s winter meet hit a crescendo Thursday when she won five races on the eight-race card, with her trainees finishing first and second in two of those events.

Rice, who did not have runners in the other three races on the card, was owner or co-owner of four of those winners.

It was the second time Rice won five races on a single Aqueduct card. On April 4, 2024, Rice went 5 for 5 there.

Jockeys Umberto Rispoli, the current leader at the Santa Anita winter-spring meeting, and Mirco Demuro, tied for sixth in the standings through Monday, are riding out of state on Saturday.

Rispoli is booked on five mounts at Santa Anita on Friday and has three stakes mounts for trainer Phil D’Amato on the Pegasus World Cup program at Gulfstream Park on Saturday, including Unconquerable Keen in the Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint. Unconquerable Keen won the Stormy Liberal Stakes at five furlongs on turf at Del Mar in his last start on Nov. 30.

Splendora, who ended her 2025 season with a win in the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint at Del Mar in November, is on schedule to start in the Grade 2 D. Wayne Lukas Stakes at Santa Anita on Feb. 7, trainer Bob Baffert said recently.

The Feb. 7 card is the leading program of the month at Santa Anita, a day with four stakes.

Splendora worked a half-mile in 47.80 seconds at Santa Anita last Saturday, her fourth workout since late December. Owned by Michael Talla, Splendora has won 5 of 10 starts and earned $860,800.

The Grade 1 winners Brant and Subsanador had workouts at Santa Anita in recent days, the beginning of comebacks for starts in coming months.

Brant, the winner of the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity at seven furlongs in September, worked three furlongs in 37.80 seconds on Thursday, his first major exercise since a third-place finish by 1 1/2 lengths as the 8-5 second choice in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at 1 1/16 miles at Del Mar on Oct. 31.

Turfway Park's cards for Friday and Saturday have been canceled, with severe winter weather expected in the region.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's office announced that he has “activated state emergency response resources” because of the threat of severe winter weather in some areas on Friday.

Sam Houston puts on its richest card of the meet, the Houston Racing Festival, on Saturday afternoon. Right now, the forecast in the area is not threatening the card, according to track executive Bryan Pettigrew.
