Revision to Meadowlands Spring Preview conditions

from the Meadowlands Media Relations Department

East Rutherford, NJ — There have been a few revisions to the conditions for the Spring Preview series for 3-year-olds at The Meadowlands the last two weekends of April.

The Spring Preview is comprised of eight separate events for 3-year-old trotters and pacers with filly divisions for each. The money conditions have been increased and now read non-winners of one pari-mutuel race or $15,000 lifetime with another set for non-winners of two pari-mutuel races or $30,000 lifetime as the base conditions. The cut-off for these conditions has been changed to read “up to and including Thursday, April 9, 2015”.

The eliminations will be scheduled for April 17-18 with the final for each right back the next weekend. There will be an entry fee of $500 due when entering the eliminations with no fee due for the finals.

Purses will remain the same with the elimination purse at $12,500, final estimated at $30,000 for NW 1; elimination at $15,000 and final estimated at $35,000 for NW 2.

These races will be listed on the April 17 and 18 condition sheet. There is no nomination required other than entering for the races on the day of the draw. Further information is available by calling the Racing Office at 877.782.2537.
