The Hambletonian Society has issued a reminder for the races it administers with payments due on March 15, 2020.
Enclosed you will find links to the payment forms for the 133 races administered by The Hambletonian Society with payments due March 15, 2020, which must be postmarked by midnight of Tuesday, March 17.
The forms are always available on our website at https://www.hambletonian.com/formsinfo and by calling our office and having them faxed or e-mailed to you. All the forms on the website are PDF fillable. Just type right in the form, print as many as you need and return the form with your payments.
Along with cheques, we will be accepting credit cards as a form of payment for any stakes payments you may want to make. All credit card payments are subject to a 3% service fee which will be added to your payment total.
In March, a majority of the payments for Two-Year-Olds in 2020 have their first payment due, whether that be for a stake race or early closing race. The exception to that would be the Breeders Crown and Kentuckiana Stallion Management Pace & Trot which had their first payments due on February 15.
Also due in March for Two-Year-Olds is the Future Eligibility payment for the Breeders Crown in the year 2020. This payment of $500 keeps horses eligible to make the regular payments into the Breeders Crown as a Three-Year-Old next year. Two-Year-Olds who are sired by Breeders Crown-nominated stallions and are not currently eligible to the Breeders Crown can be supplemented to the Breeders Crown in 2020 by making a payment of $1,500 this month.
The second payment for many of the Three-Year-Old and Open races that we service are due this March. The payment amounts and schedules for the rest of the races we are servicing in 2020 will remain the same as they were in 2019. Updated racing conditions for the races we service can be found on our website under each specified race page.
As a reminder, the Meadowlands has added two brand new Early Closers for Older Pacing Horses & Mares with a single payment of $1,000 due by March 16th. They will serve as supporting stakes to the Cutler Memorial on the May 16th nationally televised broadcast for an estimated purse of $85,000.
Information on the stake process is available on the web or by calling the Meadowlands Racing Office at (201) 842-5130.
Eligibility lists can be emailed to those nominators who provide us their e-mail address and request these lists. Eligibility lists are always available on our website.
