At The Meadowlands, unexpected events have been the norm lately. Following the 100th Hambletonian, live harness racing resumed, defying the usual post-Hambletonian hiatus. The Meadowlands embarked on six weeks of racing action, extending until mid-September, with racing scheduled only on select days to accommodate anticipated crowds due to preseason football at MetLife Stadium.
This week, racing enthusiasts are in for a special treat with a unique betting opportunity on Friday night. The recent Late 50-cent Pick-4 saw horses winning at surprising odds, resulting in the first Pick-4 carryover of 2025, amounting to $26,408. The low takeout on this carryover is expected to fuel intense betting action, creating excitement among players.
The Chief Operating Officer of The Meadowlands, Jason Settlemoir, highlighted the appeal of such opportunities for players. The combination of low-takeout multi-leg wagers with carryovers, especially in the Pick-4, generates significant interest and engagement from the betting community.
But the surprises don’t end there. The Pick-4 isn’t the only carryover on the program; the 20-cent Pick-6 will also offer a $4,028 carryover, promising more thrills for bettors. What’s more, fans can access free program pages for every race card on The Meadowlands’ website, a gesture of appreciation for their loyal support.
As the racing schedule unfolds, new faces and voices will take center stage in the broadcasting arena at The Meadowlands. Dave Little, alongside co-host Anthony Stabile and commentator Peter Kleinhans, will lead the broadcast team for the upcoming races, promising a fresh perspective for viewers.
Looking ahead, the Meadowlands Monthly Handicapping Contest on August 30 presents a chance for players to win a share of $1,000 in prize money. With a series of contests lined up until December, participants have ample opportunities to showcase their handicapping skills and compete for a spot in the $10,000 final.
For the fifth consecutive year, The Meadowlands and the New York Racing Association are teaming up to bring high-caliber harness racing events to a national audience through FOX Sports. The upcoming broadcast on September 5 will feature the New Jersey Classic Series finals, showcasing the best of harness racing to viewers across the country.
Every night at The Meadowlands offers a diverse menu of popular wagers with a low 15 percent takeout, providing ample opportunities for bettors to engage with the sport.
