The horse business is DEAD. Here's the truth that nobody wants to talk about. Let me know your thoughts.

Also what a horrible field for The Messenger

None of the big 3 in for the first leg of the triple crown

Plus a gimmick having the race go 1.3 miles.

I know Meadowlands Pace elims are next week

Just whoever does the scheduling of some of these races is brain dead

As I've said before the triple crown races should be emphasized in harness racing, instead its gimmicks and a shitty field. Great promotion of the sport

That would be like Golden Tempo, Renegade, and Commandment skipping the Derby..the 1st leg of the triple crown.

7 of them went to race for 200k!   tmbz1

This was the race to go to since this race was sandwiched between the Pepsi NA Cup and the Meadowlands pace and if you're not that caliber. 

If you are going to have a triple crown:

1----- 1/2 mile track


1----- 5/8 mile track

1------large track  [bring back colonial with 1 turn)

different distances like t-breds would be intriguing

you could also 'stack the money on the smaller tracks to give the incentive to make the small track more inviting.

Saturday is the Meadowlands Pace. The purse is up to 800K. That is well below the million it ran for many moons ago.
WILLIAM R. HAUGHTON MEMORIAL use to race for over 700K. 2 divisions going for 135K a piece.
I'm happy the Meadowlands survived. Even the stakes cards are shell of it's former self.

And a million in 1990 is 2.5 million adjusted for inflation today.  THRIVE!

Another idiotic comment. The reason no one is at the track is this mentality. Fix the problems, incompetence, and all that is wrong. NOPE.....it is easier to be a Poser.

I read this on DRF harness.

The 2025 Pace card handle of $5.1 million reflected an average handle per betting interest of $38,636. This year, Pace night handle fell to $4.05 million, or $34,655 per betting interest. Overall handle declined 26% while handle per betting interest declined 11.5%.

WOW
