Friday's GIII Penn Mile has been posted postponed until June 20 due to inclement weather conditions impacting the eastern portion of the country, according to a Penn National release Wednesday.

Other existing stakes that will be moved to June 20 are the Lyphard Stakes, Alphabet Soup Stakes and Penn Oaks.

Horses entered in those four stakes are automatically re-nominated to their respective stakes races to be run June 20. Additional nominations are also being accepted until Wednesday, June 11. Entries for the entire June 20 card will be drawn June 13.

Penn National will proceed with the seven overnight races that were originally intended–all on the main track–for the May 30 card. Racing is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m.
