The purse subsidy for Freehold was through 2029 before they closed the track for good. Sounds like the NJRC is staying silent about this. I’m assuming if Gural doesn’t get the subsidy he’s not opening the track for the 2 months in February and March. I’m starting to think Gural may pull the plug on the Meadowlands soon. He wants a casino. South Jersey does not want that to happen. Typical nonsense in NJ.
They switched them to fridays and Saturdays late summer and fall to the end of the year. Only dark from September 19 to October 24.
We heard out here no Sundays until after Hambo . They had 416 entries this week including 103 dated from the old freehold track . Yikes you guys out East never racing .
Tell me about it. Been getting in every other week. Can’t wait for pocono to open.
I think Gural made it known he is giving the casino license 2 more years to happen or he’ll close the track? If that does happen, thank you Jeff for extending the life of harness racing an additional 12 years. If you didn’t save the track then, just think of the ramifications the entire industry would be enduring today. I sincerely appreciate your efforts of “cleaning” up the industry. I don’t think most people understand the reflection of harness racing with not only ALL the positives, but the ability for these criminals to kick the can down the road through the appeal process. The pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered, let the slaughtering begin.
