Freehold raceway

I would say the nicest of the half mile tracks may be Saratoga Raceway. It is clean and very close to downtown Saratoga Springs. The racing is pretty good for a B/C type track. I find the staff very friendly as are the locals.

What about those in the mid Atlantic region ? Harrington or Ocean downs ?? Looking at the website Ocean downs looks lovely .

freehold horses are not good enough for Delaware. They would fit in Ocean Downs but won't get in..  Actually, they can race at the Meadowlands with the race conditions they are writing. How about a 68 and under TM at the Meadowlands last week?  (that's like $4,000 claimers. -some less) That's the cheapest TM class at Freehold and Meadowlands carded it: same cheap horses racing, much nicer track and a bigger purse. only an hour drive too

Love the Afternoon Delight. Once saw a man passed out in the bathroom with a flower pot busted over his head.

What’s with all the people saying the place smells like piss and urine ? One guy said Grand central in NYC smells better . Are there really homeless people sleeping there ?  You guys out East are really burying this place .

Not for nothing  but last September I wss there and the weeds in the cracks along the apron were 3 ft tall.

Damn now they need a landscaper as well . Add all of this stuff up sounds like a complete joke of a track and you all say the taxpayers out there fund this shit ?? John Q Citizen must love that .

If you don't like the place do not go do not watch or just shut the fuck up and let the people who do enjoy it race.

Do they still park new cars on the apron? New car lot

Last time i was there was about 15 years ago and yes they had a boatload of news cars in the land outside the far turn

i didnt smell urine or homeless people or see 3 foot weeds--but this was 2010

I agree Wiseowl.

The 2 of you are exactly why everything in the industry has gone steadily to crap over the decades.
