So who is going to watch the harness race race on the turf Friday night at the Meadowlands? "For the first time in 30 years, harness
horses will race on the turf at the Meadowlands Friday, June 19. A
field of eight, $15,000 claiming pacers will line up behind the mobile
starting gate for a one-mile event on the grass." Arghhhh, is there really any interest in this outside of it being a once in a blue moon curiosity? What's next? Start half the field in the opposite direction to spice things up? It would be like a big game of chicken at the wire, with horses bearing down on each other at 30 mph! Check out this link to see what happened in the turf race 30 years ago. Have a great Wednesday while Handicapping Harness!
It seems this was taken off the turf ... does anybody know if it will be re-scheduled???
