Live harness racing at The Meadowlands will be conducted on a Friday-Saturday basis through Sept. 12 with a first-race post time of 6:35 p.m.

There are several exceptions to those rules.

On July 4, there is a stakes-packed program that includes two Graduate finals as well as eliminations for the Meadowlands Pace. Post time is 6 p.m. At the conclusion of the card, the track will have a fabulous fireworks show.

The 101st edition of the $1-million Hambletonian is on August 8. That card begins at noon.

Finally, there will be three cards that take place on a Thursday. Those programs are on June 11, July 2 and August 6.

There are additional changes to the schedule with the World Cup soccer tournament coming to town.

There will be no live racing on Saturday, June 13, and Saturday, June 27, which created the need for the additional Thursdays on June 11 and July 2.
