Officials with Freehold Raceway have announced that a significant purse increase at the track will be in effect as of this Friday (March 22).
The track has announced that Freehold purses will increase by 50 per cent to an average of $60,000 per day.
The increase has been made possible due to a recently approved purse subsidy that will add an additional $1.6 million to overnight purses at Freehold this year.
“In anticipation of receiving the additional funding, purses across all classes will increase by 50 per cent,” said Freehold Raceway General Manager Howard Bruno.
