Field of 10 set for Race 9 jackpot race on February 26
EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ (February 25, 2015) – The Meadowlands Jackpot Super High 5 continues to prove elusive as it went unclaimed again last weekend. That means a carryover of $133,604 awaits horseplayers when live racing resumes in East Rutherford, NJ on Thursday night. The 9-race card begins at 7:15 p.m. The final race of the night featuring the six-figure carryover has a scheduled post time of 10:08 p.m.
Even though the jackpot has gone unclaimed since December 6, the consolation payoff continues to return generous amounts. Last Thursday, the 20-cent wager returned more than $1,900. Thanks to an industry low 8% takeout and a provision that pays 75% of the net pool to the consolation each night, handicappers have even more incentive to take a shot at the wager. Race 5 also features a Jackpot Super High 5 carryover of $28,624.
The $25,000 Dash For the “G” Notes Final for mare pacers headlines Thursday’s card. Bring Them Home is the 5-2 morning line favorite with Yannick Gingras for trainer Mark Capone.

As much as I'd love to settle in on a cold winter evening and play some Meadowlands, I just can't get myself to play this card. Good luck to you brave souls that give it a shot.

Well I played 5 races and did well ,. Hit exacta in the 9th, but not close on the Hi 5 or on the super. I find both those real tough at the Meds. Since it was the final Thursday card, I couldn't help myself. 4pezz2
