The Meadowlands is requiring that all horses entered in
the stakes listed here be
stabled at an approved training facility within a 150 mile radius (as the crow
flies) of The Meadowlands or in the stable area at Vernon Downs by 8 p.m. (EDT)
on Monday, July 31 and be made available for out of competition testing as
requested.
The stakes
are all part of the Saturday, August 5 race card; the Cane Pace, Sam McKee
Memorial (US Pacing Championship) Lady Liberty, John Cashman Memorial, Dr John
Steele Memorial (Fresh Yankee).
This time frame
was chosen to avoid conflict with the Spirit of Massachusetts trot
and the Adios, as both of those stakes are raced the previous weekend.
There will be no
charge for the stabling at Vernon and a discounted hotel rate of $20 per night
will again be offered to those with these stakes horses.
Trainers for all
of the horses entered in those stakes are responsible for informing The
Meadowlands Racing Office at 877.782.5130 of where each horse will be
stabled from July 31 until the stakes have been raced.
Questions should
be directed to Brice Cote at 609.558.5062.
