Hollywood Casino at Charles Town Races has canceled the remainder of its May 3 card after an extended weather delay.
After the first race was run without incident, a weather delay ensued as a result of lightning in the area. After approximately 45 minutes of heavy rain and persistent lightning that was expected to continue, the decision was made to cancel the remainder of the card.
Canceled races will be brought back as extras on overnights starting next week.
Live racing is slated to resume on Thursday, May 8 at its standard first race post time of 7:00 p.m. ET.
