The Meadowlands, in association with the New York Racing Association, is pleased to announce that the Meadowlands Pace will be broadcast live as a part of the popular America’s Day at the Races series on Fox Sports 2 from 8-10 p.m. on Saturday (July 17).
The Meadowlands Pace became an instant classic when Escort won the inaugural for a purse of $425,000, the largest ever offered at the time. The roster of past champions includes the legendary Niatross (1980) and his greatest son Nihilator (1985), the iron tough Captaintreacherous (2013) and Tall Dark Stranger‘s thrilling rally back to victory after being headed just last year.
The purse for this, the 45th edition of the Meadowlands Pace, will be $700,000. Pace night will offer more than $2.5 million in total purses as one of harness racing’s most anticipated cards.
