Published: February 25, 2009 10:52 am EST

Bob Taylor, general manager of the Nova Scotia Provincial Exhibition, has commented on the cancellation of Truro Raceway's upcoming Sunday card due to strangles.

"We will not be racing this Sunday because we’ve quarantined the paddock and ship-in barn," he was quoted as saying in an article by The Chronicle Herald.

He went on to say that an informational meeting will be taking place. Taylor is also urging anyone with a sick horse to report it. "We’re working under the honour system right now," he said.
