The Meadows: Post position draws to be streamed live

Hollywood Casino at The Meadows has become the first harness track in North America to offer live video of the post position draw for each race card with a dedicated YouTube channel.

“We are pleased to offer this service to our owners, trainers and the general public,” said Michael Carter, Meadows Director of Racing. “Years ago, everyone could come to the race office and watch the ‘shaking of the pills’ for the draw, but as with most things these days, everything is now done on the computer. This improves transparency and allows so many more people to see the process take place as it happens. Plus, now you won’t have to wait for the full draw results to be posted and you can find out a lot more quickly where your horse has drawn,” Carter added.

Viewers on the Meadows YouTube channel will be able to see in real time the actual post positions assigned randomly by the United States Trotting Association’s eTrack Racetrack Office System.

While the exact time of the draw can vary by day based on the review and verification of entries for each race card, viewers can subscribe to the channel to receive an alert on draw days when the live video begins.
