Harness Racing / Re: $1million new Meadowlands trot in 2027!« Last post by wizardofoz on Today at 01:50:58 PM »The following is a list of new stakes – and also current events – that will be raced for significantly increased purses. These highly impactful new dashes and purse increases for the others total over $4 million and will be contested at the mile oval in East Rutherford, NJ, in the summer of 2027.
“We were disappointed when the Hambletonian relocated to Indiana,” said Gural. “So, we at The Meadowlands, along with the SBOANJ, decided to make the bold move of making sure our fan base has a huge day of racing to attend to see the best horses in the world compete on its biggest stage. That’s why we are proud to announce the creation of the Meadowlands Trot and Meadowlands Oaks Trot.” The new lineup: Meadowlands Trot: $1 million – $50,000 eliminations on Saturday, July 24, and final on Saturday, July 31 Meadowlands Oaks Trot: $500,000 – $25,000 eliminations on Saturday, July 24, and final on Saturday, July 31 Stanley Dancer Memorial: $400,000 (est.) – $25,000 (est.) eliminations on Saturday, July 3, and final on Saturday, July 10, alongside the $800,000 (est.) Meadowlands Pace Del Miller Memorial: $400,000 (est.) – $25,000 (est.) eliminations on Saturday, July 3, and final on Saturday, July 10, alongside the $800,000 (est.)

Harness Racing / $1million new Meadowlands trot in 2027!« Last post by wizardofoz on Today at 01:49:07 PM »East Rutherford, NJ – The rumors of harness racing’s demise at The Meadowlands are, apparently, sorely mistaken. The New Meadowlands Racetrack, in conjunction with the Standardbred Breeders and Owners Association of New Jersey (SBOANJ), is pleased to announce a couple of new stakes races to its 2027 schedule to go along with purse increases to some of the other top events in the sport. The biggest waves in the stakes waters are the ones that will be stirred up by the brand-new $1-million Meadowlands Trot, a 3-year-old open, and $500,000 Meadowlands Oaks Trot, for 3-year-old fillies!

Harness Racing / Re: Metro, NA Cup and JUG are the acid Tests for Colt Pacers« Last post by Grandstand Handicapper on Today at 01:46:48 PM »I think there's two different, but related, aspects of this. Making as much money as you can, the easiest way you can is one side. Building/padding a resume and making a stallion is the other. Who does what and when is subjective, but what is not is that farms and commercial breeders look at certain races as stallion making races. Times change, races change, and so does what the commercial breeder needs to give and sell to their clients. There is no more Woodrow Wilson for 2yo's, and even when there was, in it's last years, it lost a lot of prestige in the eyes of commercial breeders. The purse went from a high of $2.1m to a low of just over $300k (when Captaintreacherou s won it-----in the race's last and final year-----throw out the first year when it was under $300k). But, many still say the best of the best show up. Do they? I am not so sure. The Metro? Yes, I would say more.
Today, with dual eligibility, states SS programs becoming more lucrative, and so on.....there's a lot in the way of alternatives. The LBJ discussion has long been debated by owners, trainers, and commercial breeders. Between the purse, heat racing, draw, the track, and so on, it's been a hot and contentious topic. Other than 2023, where I think the purse was $1m, the purse has always been between $500k and $650k (IIRC). Like I said, hot and contentious topic, LOL. 25
