Racing
Unlike many other tracks in the United States, The Meadows conducts racing year round, with over 200 days of the year featuring live racing. The specific days that the track conducts live racing vary throughout the year. Racing is conducted primarily on Monday & Tuesday afternoons with first race post time at 12:55pm eastern. The facility conducts evening cards on most Wednesdays and Fridays with a post time of 6:55pm eastern.
Races are conducted with a maximum of nine starters. All horses start on the gate; no trailer is used except in curtain stakes races or early/late closer events..

Famous quotes containing the word racing:
“Upscale people are fixated with food simply because they are now able to eat so much of it without getting fat, and the reason they don’t get fat is that they maintain a profligate level of calorie expenditure. The very same people whose evenings begin with melted goat’s cheese ... get up at dawn to run, break for a mid-morning aerobics class, and watch the evening news while racing on a stationary bicycle.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
