On Thursday, May 4 at 5:00 p.m., the Standardbred Breeders & Owners Association of New Jersey and TrotPAC will host a fundraiser reception in support of Ambassador Phil Murphy, the likely Democratic nominee for Governor at Deo Volente Farms in Flemington, New Jersey.

Murphy has earned significant Democratic Party support from coveted county ballot line placements to political support from leaders like former Governor Dick Codey to labour unions and political activists.

The SBOANJ is urging for support of the private event. It will be an opportunity to inform Ambassador Murphy about the New Jersey Standardbred racing industry and discuss its challenges. Several SBOA directors have already had the opportunity to meet with the ambassador and start a dialogue with him. The SBOANJ has stated that it is in a strong position to develop a mutually beneficial relationship with Murphy and his team. The SBOANJ would appreciate your attendance as well as your generous financial support of the event.
