Saturday’s season-opener at the Meadowlands Racetrack has even more reasons for horseplayers to jump in to harness racing’s largest nightly pools.
The entire 13-race Trackmaster platinum past performance program is available for free download for all horseplayers on the Meadowlands website. As usual, track handicapper Dave Brower’s horse-by-horse race reviews are also posted on the website and printed in the nightly track program.
As an added benefit, TVG and 4NJBets will offer their ultra-popular Money Back Special on Races 5 – 8 at the Meadowlands on Saturday night. Horseplayers who wager through the ADW platforms must opt-in to the promotion in advance. Then, TVG will refund the first win bet, up to $10 per race, if the selection finishes second or third during the four designated races.
Post time for Race 5 at the Meadowlands will be just after the conclusion of the Breeders Cup Classic, giving horseplayers even more reason to stick around and play the races on one of the year’s best racing days.
The first 1,000 fans on-track will receive a Meadowlands 2017-2018 commemorative wall calendar filled with images of the sport’s greatest horses and drivers in action from the 2017 racing season. The giveaway begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Player’s Club Desk in the Clubhouse Lobby.
The highly-anticipated Pick 10 Survivor wager debuts on Saturday beginning on Race 1. The wager will have a $10,000 guaranteed pool on opening night in conjunction with the USTA’s Strategic Wagering Program.
First-race post time at Del Mar for Day Two of the Breeders’ Cup simulcast is 1:10 p.m.
Saturday’s season-opening harness card at the Meadowlands includes four six-figure finals of the Kindergarten Classic for 2-year-old trotters and pacers. Post time is 7:15 p.m.
