The $433,000 (estimated) Hambletonian Maturity for four-year-old trotters will be raced on Saturday, July 18 at the Meadowlands Racetrack.
Supplemental declarations for the Hambletonian Maturity must be accompanied by payment of the supplemental amount ($50,000) and received in the Meadowlands race office no later than 8 a.m. on Monday, July 13 or at the Hambletonian Society’s offices before the end of the business day on Friday, July 10 (5 p.m.).
Any supplement(s) will be announced via the Meadowlands text service.
Declarations for eligible horses must be in by 9 a.m. on Monday, July 13. The Hambletonian Maturity allows for 16 starters and will be contested at the distance of one and one-eighth miles. All starters will receive money, and – like the Hambletonian and Hambletonian Oaks – no race-day medication is permitted. A complete list of eligibles and conditions for the Hambletonian Maturity are available on the Hambletonian Society website.
Along with the above mentioned stakes event, the powerful July 18 card will include the finals for the Meadowlands Pace, Mistletoe Shalee and WR Haughton FFA. The Stanley Dancer and Delvin Miller Memorials for three-year-old trotters and the Golden Girls and Miss Versatility for older mares of both gaits are on the card as well. Declarations for these stakes are due by 9 a.m. on July 13 as well.
The condition sheet for July 17 & 18 live racing contains all necessary information. All trainers must have a 2015 Racing Application on file with the race office before entries may be accepted.
