Due to the impeding ice storm which will hit southwestern Ontario beginning this afternoon, the live harness racing program slated for Wednesday (Feb. 22) at The Raceway at the Western Fair District has been cancelled. Simulcasting will also be closed today due to the expected unsafe travel conditions.
