I would like to personally thank Jeff Gural for hosting the Hambo!

     How come you're not?

I'm not the friend of the owners!   

Thanks for posting. 

Anything else on your mind concerning this?

Great race for your horse rainman2. I wasn't thrilled with post but didn't thiink the favorite should be that over bet. So I took $20WP on your horse and a $3EX up and back! I got lucky with the bomb winning!

The 6 at 1/2 on the board was in trouble before the start!  Had to catch the gate which used precious energy and the front half was extremely fast.  This helped the closers immensely!

Although i've made good money with your horses over the years, I think this one may be the best you've ever had. I made a nice tidy profit today. Congrats!

Lucky you're a gambler instead of an owner.

I too will jump on the bandwagon and thank Mr. Jeff for going thru the giant headaches that one must endure while organizing a production of an event of this scale! One could say that he only does this for his own agenda, but it still takes alot of time and effort no matter how many times you have done it!  I hope he gets the Casino because if he doesn't, racing will change as a whole as we know it, Two thumbs 👍  for another production well done!!

Is Mr. Gural the only major entity that owns racetracks that is not gambling oriented (MGM, Penn National, etc.)?

If it wasn't for this man there would be no racing in New Jersey. I'm in New York guy and have gotten to know Jeff over the years,, he's a good man.

We all should be thankful that Jeff has done when he's done for the sport. Thank you Jeff!

Great post G! We should all be grateful and thankful to Jeff for doing what it takes to put on a wonderful Hambletonian day for our great sport. Without him, the Meadowlands would be out of business.

But your fellow misfit Poser2 said everything was thriving with harness racing
You misfits better get your stories straight

Chapstick?

Chapstick?

Owners, trainers and drivers are making record money. If you’re not then you have no idea what you’re doing and probably not classifying your horses correctly. People are making more money than they ever have. Those are just the facts.
