Post by: PineHurstPacer on June 30, 2026, 03:00:21 PM: I thought the owner said Mamba wasn't eligible after winning the NA Cup @ Mohawk

maybe even said He wasn't eligible to anything outside of Indiana

The Grand Circuit races become more meaningless every day.

Does this seem like a lot of byes extended?

Are there rules around byes? I never really gave it much thought, since previous ones seemed to make sense, so didn't question them.

Post by: captaintreacherous on July 03, 2026, 06:48:28 AM: Meadowlands Pace has become a Grade 2 Race

The Grade 1 races are The Metro Pace, Pespsi NA Cup

and the Jug....

Who ever heard of "byes" into the M Pace???

Absurd.
