Monticello Raceway Seeks 14-year Olds


By: Shawn Wiles

Decades ago the great PR guru John Manzi came up with the idea of conducting a race for 14-year-old equines for their last start of their racing career. This unique niche event has been duplicated many times over the years by many tracks.

Monticello Raceway Race Secretary Eric Warner is searching for 14-year-old pacers to participate in an Invitational Pace on Monday December 31 for a purse of $5000, check the Condition sheet for more details. Anyone interested should contact the Racing Office at 845 794 4100 ext. 557 or ewarner@empireresorts.com
