East Rutherford, NJ — The Meadowlands’ live racing week begins with a nine race card on Thursday (March 2). It is the penultimate Thursday program of the winter meet.

Ten conditioned trotters will line up for the featured eighth race offering several class angles to consider while handicapping.

Danish Durango has been racing himself into form while his gradual improvement paired with class relief have him in prime position for a win. A winner seven times last season, the fastest in 1:52, while earning just shy of $70,000 for trainer Kevin McDermott and owner Little E LLC, Danish Durango was a gritty second last week and draws a favorable post five in Thursday’s race for top driver Jimmy Marohn Jr.

The horizontal wager guarantees are in place and free program pages for the $40,000 guaranteed Late Pick-4 are available to get started in the selection process.

Post time is 7:15 p.m.
