Title: Southwinds Breeding farm to close by '28
Post by: MCR on July 01, 2026, 11:27:35 AM
Such a beautiful place and a loss for the industry but I believe this speaks volumes as to where not only NJ is heading but harness racing as a whole

Not ever going to be profitable to breed and raise horses in NJ. What is the long term future of Harness racing in NJ? Amazing it's still hanging on by a thread, life support from the state comes thru, 1 more year! Why invest in NJ

Southwind is a beautiful property but the farm manager is an ass. Ask any shipper who was asked to pick up or drop off a horse. They also mainly function as a stallion station buying questionable studs and not supporting them with mares. The NJ racing program is questionable due to the fact that every state around them has slots and NJ politicians are known to be corrupt. Only 2 states that have racing have rejected racinos. NJ and Illinois. Also the 2 states that have the most former politicians in prison. Maybe a coincidence???

NJ is fine. Their breeding programs are as good as any and their racing attracts more gamblers than any. Plus, their sports betting is crushing it.

NJ is fine. ngc3 One remaining track that is gradually going down hill. All the rats fleeing the ship.
NJ is a state. Another one is the state of DENIAL. Apparently your 2nd home. Don't have to be a
trainer or groom to see that. 11.wp

Jersey is down to two years if they don't get a Casino. It's really that simple. And I don't like their chances as I see this latest news as hush money to keep them quiet until they just fold up shop. I mean there is no breeding business to speak of, all the trainers with money behind them will be in kentucky by 2027/28 so the game is basically dead.

I think the owners of the mares decide whom to breed to.  If these are questionable stallions to begin with, then it is probably a cause of the problem by breeding in New Jersey.

Sports betting at M1 broke every record for revenue you clown. Do your homework before proving what a fool you are.
