Jaipur And Manhattan Switched To Sunday Due To Heavy Rain At The Spa

Saratoga's main track Saturday afternoon | Sarah Andrew

Due to heavy rain impacting the Saratoga Springs region, the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) has moved Saturday's GI Jaipur Stakes and GI Resorts World Casino Manhattan Stakes to Sunday, according to a press release from the organization on Saturday morning.

The Jaipur [ninth race], a “Win and You're In” for the GI Prevagen Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint, and the Manhattan [12th race], which will be contested at nine furlongs on the inner turf rather than the originally scheduled 1 3/16 miles on the Mellon turf, will be run as the 12th and 13th on the Sunday card, respectively.

As a result of the inclement weather, turf races scheduled for the third race, the sixth race [GII Wonder Again Stakes], the 10th race [GIII Pennine Ridge Stakes] and the 14th race will be contested on the main track.

The two-day all turf Pick 5 which began on Friday's program will pay out to ALL on the final three legs scheduled for Saturday's card.

Sunday's Closing Day card of the Belmont Stakes Racing Festival has a first post of 12:10 p.m. ET. Admission gates will open to the public at 11 a.m. ET.
