East
Rutherford, NJ - The Meadowlands
will host live racing over the weekends of September 9-10 and 16-17. Horsemen
are advised that double-draws will be held each of the next few Tuesdays for
those race cards.
The Kindergarten Series
will provide an opportunity for trainers to glean some racing
lessons for their "late-bloomers" in preparation for the ample
stakes remaining on the 2016 schedule as well as offering a certain opportunity
to race against two-year-olds as Sires Stakes come to a close in New York
and Pennsylvania. Also, valuable points toward the $150,000 November 5 finals
are at stake in these legs.
So far as the
overnighters, Race Secretary Pete Koch has composed a condition
sheet with something for everybody. The popular "G-Note" short
series races will be offered for pacing mares and horses in the NW $3,500 L/5
class and claimers that have raced for a price of $10,000 or less since July 1.
All of them offer a chance to return the second week for a purse of $17,500.
The fifth and last leg
of the Miss Versatility series for trotting mares is set to go on Friday,
September 9 with the $120,000e final raced in Delaware Ohio on Little Brown Jug
Day, September 22.
The box for September 9
& 10 closes at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 6. Enter online or by phone
