I want nothing more than to see the Meadowlands to succeed. I get speeding up the races, having post time earlier, and all the other efforts they are making. I am all for speeding up the races.....BUT coupling that with adding more races, to me is a money grab. When the quality of your product is poor-----very poor-----you should not be adding more races. It's instinctual, but counterproductive . I don't want to hear the BS that they have full fields, abundance of entries, and so on. If you have $hit to sell, don't offer more of it.

Just because you don't want to hear it....... Doesn't mean it's not true!!!

They only added 1 race both nights for a total of 2 added races, after 50 races were canceled last weekend.

Seems logical, I'm assuming horsemen have bills to pay.

Hey, it may be true, but that doesn't mean just add more races. Next they'll add as many as they can. Why not? Look where that has gotten the quality of the product. I am all for horsemen paying bills. I am all for the horsemen. I am one of them. But Meadowlands management has been running too many races and poor product for a long time now. I'll buy this short term, very short. I think they will keep it up. We'll see.

Let’s see if they truly even run these 30 races or if they get horses on the list from not racing .
