Meadowlands: Hambletonian Maturity supplements due Tuesday morning

The $400,000 (est) E.T. Gerry Jr. Hambletonian Maturity trotting race is scheduled for Saturday, July 15 at The Meadowlands on a star-studded, stakes-packed evening that will be broadcast on Fox Sports 1 from 10:00 p.m. - 12:00 midnight.

The race conditions allow for supplemental entry for ineligible trotters and the parameters are as follows:

Supplemental entries are due and payable by 8 a.m. on Tuesday, July 11, 2023. Payment of $50,000 ($42,000 plus the $8,000 entrance fee) must be in certified U.S. Funds and received in the Racing Office prior to 8 a.m. (local time) on that day along with the supplemental entry. Arrangements for a supplemental payment may also be made with the Hambletonian Society office at 609-371-2211.

All supplemental entrance fees shall be made payable to The Meadowlands Racetrack, and will be added to the amount of the Maturity purse. For horses for which the supplemental entrance fee is paid, no other fee of any kind is required.

Entries for eligible Maturity horses are due at the standard Meadowlands entry time of 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, July 11.

If any supplemental entries are received for the Hambletonian Maturity, notice will be dispersed via Meadowlands text message service.

Like the Hambletonian and Oaks, the Maturity racing conditions prohibit the use of Lasix, the only race day medication permitted in New Jersey and entrants are subject to out of competition testing. The distance is a mile and eighth and all starters will receive money.
