Jessica Otten is joining the Eldorado Scioto Downs team for the 2026 racing season. Otten has been working on updating the TV graphics for the track and will be seen on-air conducting paddock interviews, providing race analysis and creating additional content for social media and the simulcast show. She has also been busy setting up on-track promotions to make the guest experience better at the track.
"I’m very excited to join the team at Scioto Downs,” said Otten. “I’ve been working 2 nights a week at the Meadowlands for the past few years as a per diem employee and I really need to make a living. Scioto runs 5 nights a week starting next week and then 4 nights a week from August through October. It's sad that the future doesn't look very bright in New Jersey but I’m grateful for the opportunity to contribute and grow within such a strong environment.”
“It is great having Jessica join the team,” said Scioto’s Director of Racing, Jason Roth. “Her experience in the industry both on and off air will help us immensely. She has worked big events in the past and will be a huge part of making us successful with the 2026 Breeders Crown.”

She actually left Meadowlands after the Hambletonian last year.
-
Didn’t they put her in charge of amateur series I recall an announcement then not another word about it.

Originally headed the GSY. Now it's Joe Lee and David Glasser.

Settlemore still smelling her chair

ONLY CHAIR HES SMELLING IS DAVE LITTLES tmbz1

I’m surprised it took her so long to quit the Meadowlands, two nights a week for lousy pay .Tough to pay the bills on that
-
Better move for her. Closer to her Beau and able to help her parents if need be paddocking at Northfield.

Whoopity do! Not a single person will attend the Crown races because she has joined the team IMO! It was a sell out prior to the release of this tid bit of information .

Not to mention she had to follow Little in the buffet line and pickings are slim after he goes through!

Best of luck, Jess!!

will the show be better or worse for this?

Leaving the sinking ship early, handwriting on the wall. NO CASINO NO BIG M! Big M gets less important every year, Ky, Indiana and Ohio are where the action is headed. She made a good decision. It's also a hell of a lot cheaper to live, just ask Purple Jesus.
-
If it wasn’t for the meadowlands no one would even know who she was . And why would she take a shot at them by saying racing in New Jersey looks sad or whatever the hell she said . She will be a groom for life.
-
not sure exactly what she brings to the table
i guess as an interviewer perhaps
but no knowledge and no right to be pretending to be a handicapper
-
MET HER ION AN ELEVATOR AT HOTEL NEAR HOOSIER LAST YR..NICE GIRL
6 OUTTA 10 LOOKS WISE ..10 OUTTA 10 SMILE WISE tmbz1

Fuckable but nothing to brag about
-
The writing is on the wall at the Bigm and it says it's all done after this year.
-
Mo left, got Andy out of retirement, why, nobody wants the starters job. Gary Wolfe, retired, he deserves it. But he will be still overseeing the track, just when it gets fucked up. All the employees know the reality of the place, no casino no racetrack. Hell if he died tomorrow who takes over? JASON Get real folks, do you see a succession plan anywhere?
-
With the latest that I read I would say the writing is on the wall. In my opinion when we are thinking about losing the Meadowlands it may be tine to look at our entire sport. Its dying a slooooow painful death and its on life support
-
New Jersey gave up on meadow
-
She never said anything about New Jersey's future. Fake post.

Thanks for exposing this, Mike. It didn't seem like something she would say. The internet in general is now well over 50% bullshit. And we know that only a handful of ploppers, including you, Grandstand and Whiptherabbit, can be taken seriously. Sad state of affairs.
