East Rutherford, NJ - Good field size, competitive races and top
drivers highlight the Saturday offering at The Meadowlands along with the
standard menu of guaranteed exotic wagers
and delightful dining options in Pink.
The Saturday night feature comes in race seven where eight solid
pacers vie for a purse of $17,500 in a conditioned event.
Ron Burke sends a duo of accomplished veterans out as a coupled
entry with Always At My Place and Speed Again representing the top barn in
racing.
Always At My Place is only recently removed from winning the Open
class at Yonkers twice in late October. The 2017 winner of over $173,000 has
won 9 of 28 seasonal starts for trainer Burke as Burke Racing along with
partners Weaver Bruscemi, Larry Karr and Phil Collura. Yannick Gingras will
drive from post six on Saturday.
Speed Again has been around forever and may have last a step or
two at age eight but recently eclipsed the $1 million mark in career earnings.
He races for Burke Racing, Weaver Bruscemi and RTC Stables with Corey Callahan
aboard from post seven.
There is a qualifier for the World Harness
Handicapping Contest (WHHC) sponsored by Derby Wars on Saturday with two
seats in the big final up for grabs.
Post time is 7:15 p.m.
