By Carol Hodes for the SBOANJ

 MANALAPAN, NJ – October 20, 2015 – The Board of Directors of the Standardbred Breeders & Owners Association of New Jersey will be meeting with Meadowlands Racetrack Chairman Jeff Gural to review the racing dates for 2016.

“The Board was not happy with the dates proposal that the Meadowlands issued this week and will be meeting with Jeff Gural on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, to open a dialogue about the dates,” said SBOANJ President Tom Luchento.  “We want to come up with a plan that will be good for everyone, and we think there are some better alternatives.”


Dates will come before the New Jersey Racing Commission in November.
