The big day has arrived and the weather could not be better at a sunny and mild 78 degrees! Local sports show Sports Nation on WPIX last night here in NYC/NJ had a 10 minute segment with John Campbell promoting the Hambletonian today hosted by Marc Malusis and Nelson Figueroa which was nice for the sport to get free advertising.

Funtime Bayama is not a stakes horse and should be in overnights weekly already.  They are wasting the horse coming in last in these top races.

East Rutherford, NJ –Total handle on the 16-race Hambletonian Day card Saturday at The Meadowlands totaled $7,464,087, up slightly over 2024, when $7.427 million was pushed through the windows in North America.


“And after the foreign entities are added to the total, our Hambletonian Day handle figures to be in excess of $8 million for a fourth straight year,” said Big M Chief Operating Officer and General Manager Jason Settlemoir.

A crowd of 17,696 jammed into the mile oval as on-track betting totaled $851,826, an increase over last year of 8.2 percent.

“Great weather and the usual great Hambletonian Day card led to a big day of wagering on-site,” said Settlemoir. “We appreciate our faithful fans, and, of course our horsemen and staff for putting on another great show.”

Neither is Amazing Catch - should pry go to Scioto and see if he can make a few back in the open.  Will give him a few more starts but think It’s My Show might be cooked too
