East Rutherford, NJ – The Meadowlands upcoming SRF races for 3-year-olds will get underway on Friday, March 31 with trotting and pacing fillies set to race in the $20,000 first of three preliminary legs with the pacing and trotting colts scheduled for Saturday, April 1.
The series will go forward on the Friday / Saturday schedule through the course of theĀ legs and the finals (and consolations) will be held on the weekend of April 21 & 22.

The amount donated to the Standardbred Retirement Fund (SRF) by competing interests in the series totaled more than $35,000 which was matched by The Meadowlands for a total donation of over $70,000.
