The Meadowlands Racetrack will remain closed to fans on Friday, Oct. 9 for simulcasting, sports wagering and live racing. Winners Bayonne remains open.
The track first closed to patrons on Tuesday, Sept. 29, after a few individuals tested positive for COVID-19 that they acquired either in the workplace or at home. Contact tracing is ongoing.
Out of an abundance of caution the entire facility was shut down for top to bottom sanitization. The Meadowlands Racetrack is committed to providing a safe and healthy grandstand for all employees, patrons and fans.
Live harness racing will take place at 7:15 p.m. on Friday and Saturday night. Horsemen are reminded to have the COVID questionnaire completed when arriving at the stable gate for their temperature check. Face masks worn over the mouth and nose are required at all times while in the paddock.
