Editor’s Note:

These picks were originally set for 8 days ago, but the Weather Man and the Arctic Blast had a few things to say about all that — like in a cancellation.

The card has been reinstated and now will be run today — with the first post at 3 p.m. ET.

Weather is better.

Timing is better.

Let’s hope the winning is better.

Here is the rundown from 8 days ago — to today: 

Here’s our looks for this Saturday’s frigid, but, perhaps, hottest day of handicapping and racing for this entire Holiday Meet at the new and improved Turfway Park — who sits chilly in the midst of Florence, KY. — Ya’ll.

On this card, which we wall hope will come to fruition and a warm reception, at the same time, includes 4 stakes races in the 10-race card and an armored truck load of cash and prizes in the form of purses.

Hot rides — like Flavien Prat and Irad Ortiz, Jr. — will be on hand.

Hotter trainers — like Brad Cox, Brendan Walsh and a host of Canada’s best — will be sitting in the heated section of the horsemen’s center.

It is slated to be a tremendous night. If the cold weather and snow conditions allow.

So, here we go:

1st: 8-9/1-7-2/5…Comments to come later…

2nd: 1-10/(13)/4-3-8/6-5-2-12…

3rd: 2/10-6/9-1-7…

5th: 9-(14)/10-3/8-11-(13)-6…

6th: 2-8-9/6-7/3-4/5-10…My Charmer Stakes…
