Registration Now Open for Meadowlands Championship Meet Survival Challenge


It will be a race to the finish for cash prizes & WHHC seats in the Meadowlands Racetrack’s 2017 Championship Meet Survival Challenge powered by 123Racing, an online handicapping competition that begins Friday, May 5.     

Trackmaster will provide Platinum Past Performances for each night of the contest. 
The game covers the Meadowlands’ Summer Championship Meet, featuring millions in stakes races and the best pacers and trotters in training.  The game concludes on Hambletonian Day on Saturday, August 5, 2017.

The winner is determined by the highest total bankroll at the end of the Challenge based on a $2 “across the board” wager [win, place and show] on selections for three designated races each program.        

However, to continue in the game, entrants have to “survive” by finishing in-the-money [first through third] with at least one of their selections each day.  Failing to do so or not making selections knocks the player out of the game.  To aid in the player’s survival a “lucky horseshoe” is given.  The lucky horseshoe is a “free pass” given to all Challenge participants that allows the player to survive if he does not make selections for a race card or all three of his selections fail to hit the board.

The grand prize is $1,000 & 2018 WHHC Spot
The second-place prize is $500 & 2018 WHHC Spot
The third-place prize is $250 & 2018 WHHC Spot

The contest is open to legal residents of the United States and Canada 18 years and older, and all selections must be made through the format provided on the Survival Challenge website page.  No selections will be accepted by phone, fax, e-mail or any other means.  Trackmaster Platinum Past performances for the three designated races will be provided through the game board.

The deadline for selections each day is 30 minutes before 7:15 p.m. post time for the first race.  Exceptions include Saturday, July 8 [first post is 6:30 p.m.], Saturday, July 15 [first post is 6:30 pm], and Hambletonian Day, Saturday, August 5 [post time 12 noon].  After 30 minutes to post, all selections are final.
