With severe winter weather continuing to plague parts of the country and more on the way, Oaklawn Park has canceled racing for the entire upcoming weekend. Live racing was originally scheduled for Friday to Sunday, Jan. 10-12, but will now resume Friday, Jan. 17.

The Hot Springs track has not yet announced a rescheduling of the races that were to be held this weekend. One black-type race–the $150,000 Pippin Stakes for fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up, going 1 1/16 miles–was slated for Saturday, Jan. 11.
