When asked about Thursday night racing, Meadowlands CEO Jeff Gural had this response, "Scott (Warren, Big M racing secretary) carded 9 races for this coming Thursday and I have instructed Jason Settlemoir (Meadowlands COO) and Mike Antonaides (Meadowlands program director) to get through the card as quickly as possible. Forget about drag time between races, forget about pool guarantees, the longer the lights are on, the more money I'm losing."From Meadowlands Media Relations

Gural has said that he starts early to accommodate the requests of horsepeople, track employees and gamblers who don't want to stay late at night
Race during the day and you solve your lights problem.Your lousy races start so damn early as it is. By the time I get home, cook dinner and finish my dinner it's already race 8. Why start so early ?
