Out-of-Competition Testing Clears for Weekend Breeders Crown Entrants

The New Jersey Racing Commission has cleared the out of competition tests screened to date on entrants in the $5.5 million Breeders Crown races to be held Friday, Nov. 21 and Saturday, Nov. 22 at The Meadowlands in East Rutherford, New Jersey. This procedure has been routine for nearly a decade in the Hambletonian Society sponsored and owned Breeders Crown events, as well as the Hambletonian and Hambletonian Oaks. 

Earlier this week samples were drawn from finalists entered throughout New Jersey, and those stabled in other jurisdictions were also tested with the cooperation of the participating horsemen. All horses must report six hours in advance of race time to a secure stakes barn at The Meadowlands.
