I went last year for the first time. Empty and in a bad neighborhood.

     It's a catch 22 like most harness tracks now. No one goes because no one is there.

Looks like all the juicers have moved from Pokey nose to Chester. Same state just different location. Don't understand Pa and the racing commission there.

Putting it on my bucket list.
If you are going to plan a visit. Make sure if taking kids you feed them first. Only food available you have to go through casino to get too. Other than an overpriced vending machine

Kids feed themselves now thankfully. Appreciate the heads up. I am gonna take a ride to Plainridge soon. Say hi to some friends/watch some races.

Chester is a much better plant than Plainridge. Just empty. I found Plairidge pretty awful

And to me, who goes there 3 times a year including dinner at Pink, The new Meadowlands is a shell of the old Meadowlands, so truly, where is there a "nice" harness track anymore?

Well Fug the Big M may not be the same but compared to the other tracks it’s like the Taj Mahal. At least they have a decent food court on live race nights. At MR the food court is a junk food machine.

Totally agree. Hard to come with a great venue. Those are looong gone now that I give it some thought. Sad...

Chester sucks, it’s hard racing for small purses, I believe it will be closed within 2 years if the higher up don’t get up their asses and make changes

You are an old school horseman and obviously still love the game. Every track is worth a visit. Some are huge disappoints but always fun to get there
