Saratoga P-5 Fiasco

I can remember playing a Pick-3 at the new Arlington Park anticipating bad weather.

The rains came and one of the races was taken off the turf after betting had closed.

A nice score could be made if you were good at handicapping the weather like Tom Skilling.

I was lucky with the weather forecast, but not the horse forecast. I did not cash.

There were no protections in place in Illinois, at that time, that I can recall.
