They were satisfied with the handle because it was close to what they do on a typical Friday. Meadowlands usually handles about $200k on track so the empty grandstand had minimal impact on the handle.
but what was typical of a Friday minus 200k doesn't seem like the goal they should be striving for. Not when Northfield and Scioto are racing on the same night and handling 2.5 million collectively or more
Horatio Hornblower, you are something else. I live in the NYC/NJ market. The 2 main OTBs in NJ are Winners at Bayonne and Favorites at Woodbridge. Monmouth Park also has a nice simulcast following. All three are currently CLOSED. The Meadowlands is currently CLOSED too for on site betting. Once all 4 are allowed to reopen there will be a nice increase in the total handle. Believe it or not, not everyone bets on their computers. I for one do not and am waiting to go back to the Meadowlands once it reopens to the public. Favorites at Woodbridge in NJ is one of the most successful OTBs in the country and it is shut down now. Facts!
HAWTHRONE KICKED OFF THE SEASON WITH A MILLION DOLLAR HANDLE
