The Meadows Racetrack & Casino kicks off its 2021 season of harness racing on Wednesday with a 13-race card beginning at 12:45 p.m. To add to the excitement of opening day, the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association (MSOA) is offering free race programs that can be downloaded from the track's website.
The Meadows will race each Wednesday, Thursday and Friday through the end of March, first post 12:45 p.m. each day, with Tuesdays added for April. The multi-race wagering menu includes: Pick 3 (Race 2); Early Pick 4 (Race 4); Pick 5 (Race 8); Late Pick 4 (Race 10); Super Hi-5 (day’s final race). The Super Hi-5 offers a 20-cent minimum wager while the minimum bet for the other multi-race wagers listed is 50 cents.
As always, the highlight of the racing season is the $500,000 (est) Delvin Miller Adios Pace for the Orchids, one of harness racing’s premier tests for three-year-old pacers that this year is set for July 24 and July 31.
