LITTLE BACK AT BIG M

By Meadowlands Media Relations

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – New Meadowlands Racetrack is pleased to announce that Dave Little has been added to the Big M's television and media relations staffs. His first appearance will be during this evening's nine-race card that gets underway at 7:15 p.m.

Little will serve as the primary co-host (alongside Dave Brower) and occasional host of the track's award-winning nightly simulcast production that is seen in every venue that takes action on Meadowlands racing. He'll serve in the same capacity on the “Racing from the Meadowlands” replay show, which can be seen on SportsNet New York (SNY) after a live race card.

The long-time harness racing aficionado will also be responsible to send out the nightly release that recaps the evening's action.

“We are happy to have Dave back at the Meadowlands,” said track chief operating officer and general manager Jason Settlemoir. “Dave did plenty of TV work at the track years ago, and more recently, did our morning-line odds and program analysis. He has been a patron of the Meadowlands for nearly four decades and we are looking forward to having him – and that wealth of experience he brings – on our team.”

Little was a long-time newspaperman, first handicapping both harness and thoroughbred races for the New York Post before moving on to the New York Daily News, where he served as racing editor, columnist and handicapper for 24 years. He is the Grand Circuit Week track announcer at Goshen (N.Y.) Historic Track and also calls the action every year at the Orleans County Fair in Barton, Vermont.
