East Rutherford, NJ — A couple of new shooters have declared their intentions to drive at the Meadowlands this coming weekend, including two that have confirmed their intention to participate in the upcoming drivers’ competition that begins this Saturday.

Jim Morrill, Jr. will be racing at the Meadowlands on Friday only for the next few weeks as he transitions into the summer meet at Pocono, which is dark on Friday.

Two new faces with Midwestern roots are moving their tack East on Saturday and will be competing in the contest. Tony Hall and Tyler Smith may have Siriusly Sinatra blaring “If I can make it there, I can make it anywhere…” from their satellite radio as they make the trip to compete in Saturday’s first leg of the Legends vs Phenoms tournament.

With track openings and stakes races drawing some of the talent away, the next several weekends will present an opportunity for drivers to take a shot here at The Big M. Interested parties should call the judges office at 201.460.4146.

The new condition sheet is available here.

Horses should be entered with a driver of the connection’s choice. The drivers will make their picks by scratch time and trainers should call in to the judges to check the status.
