I know it rained the night befor, but I believe the horses still raced.
I arrived at the DuQuoin fairgrounds at 12 noon Sunday,blue sky,sunny and hot.
Was told by security the the race had been cancelled.
Walked around to turn 3-4,talked to a few fans sitting on the wall,told them it had been cancelled,they thought that might be wrong as it was too early to do that....!!!
I lived in hope.
Plenty of campers,fans up on the hill.
By 4pm the track looked ready to race on,nature had done the perfect track prep..!!
Sun still shining,still hot.
No more need be said....!!!
