East Rutherford, NJ — Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment will host its “2nd Sportscasters Charity Derby” — two harness races to benefit each participating sportscaster’s selected charitable organizations — on Saturday (May 11).

The “2nd Sportscasters Charity Derby” will consist of ten famous sportscasters who will each compete in a one-mile harness race driving a racehorse in a jog cart. There will be two charity races, with five sportscasters participating in each race.

Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment will donate $5,000 to each of the two winning sportscasters’ selected charities and will also make a $1,000 donation to each charity selected by each sportscaster who participates.

Jeff Gural, Chairman and CEO of Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment, said, “We are very excited to be hosting the ‘2nd Sportscasters Charity Derby.’ We are equally excited that so many of the top sportscasters who live in the NY-NJ Metro area will be participating in this fun and exciting event. It will raise funds for many important charitable organizations and harness racing fans will have a great time handicapping and analyzing the sportscasters’ respective talents to drive a racehorse.”
