The Meadowlands will welcome four popular Grand Circuit stakes for older horses, previously been raced at Tioga & Vernon Downs, to the big time over the mile oval at "Harness Racing's Greatest Showplace" for 2021.

The Roll With Joe (Open Pace) sponsored by Clinton Tractor, Crawford Farms (Open Trot) sponsored by Al & Michelle Crawford's Crawford Farms, Artiscape (Open Mare Pace) sponsored by International Sound and the Joie De Vie (Open Mare Trot) sponsored by Harrah's Hoosier Park Racing & Casino will all be raced at The Meadowlands as part of a celebration of Independence Day weekend on the night of Saturday, July 3, each for an estimated purse of $175,000.

These stakes are a part of a $20 million stakes program for 2021 at The Meadowlands with nearly $5 million of that total being directed to the older stars of the sport.
