Races taken off turf at Saratoga due to rain

SARATOGA SPRINGS - Rain has forced Sunday's third, fifth, sixth and seventh races at Saratoga Race Course off the turf onto the main track, which is sloppy and sealed.

For wagering purposes, in the early pick 4, the third and fifth races become "all" races because of the late surface switch.
