John Campbell, harness racing's all time leading money winning driver with over $285 million in career earnings, will be returning to the sulky on Friday night at the Meadowlands Racetrack.

Campbell has been out of action for six weeks due to a fractured collarbone sustained in a non-racing accident. He has drives in nine of the 13 races (two of those are restricted to amateur drivers) on Friday and a full slate on Saturday as well.

"I'm certainly looking forward to getting back to racing horses," Campbell said Thursday morning. "I got a really good report from the doctor this last visit. Strength and mobility are back to where I was before the break. I've been training some the past few weeks to get back in the swing.

"I'm back in time to get some work in before the three-year-olds start up and stakes season gets underway, so if I had to miss, the timing was good."

Campbell will add strength to the ‘Legends’ team in the current Drivers Tournament that pits the established Meadowlands drivers against the up and comers who have been anointed as ‘Phenoms’ for the purpose of the contest.

Corey Callahan is another welcome addition to the ‘Legends’ side of the ledger upon his return from a trip to Australia.

Live racing at the Meadowlands will take place this weekend on Friday and Saturday. First-race post time will be 7:15 p.m. Saturday's card includes two series finals: the $60,600 Horse & Groom and $83,000 Clyde Hirt.
