Beat The Boss and Thursday Stakes Night at Tioga Downs

Big M Club members should make plans to attend the races at the Meadowlands on Friday, July 22 (I early said June by mistake) for the "Beat The Boss" promotion.  All Big M Club members need to do is go to the Guest Services office on the paddock level on Friday, July 22 and pick up and complete a pick sheet prior to Friday's first race (pick sheets will be available at the start of  the day's simulcasting session). 

If you out handicap "The Boss", Jeff Gural that night (a tie is a loss) you will be entered into a drawing the following day for a $1,000 wagering voucher.  All you need to do is show your ID and collect your voucher on July 23 and you get to play with "The Boss's Money."

Not a Big M Club member?  Then there is another reason for you to show up on Back To The Track weekend so you can join the Big M Club in time for the contest.


Thursday night is another all stakes program at Tioga Downs with the Tompkins-Geers being contested for 2yo colt and filly trotters.  Now, I realize some people don't like playing two year old trotters, especially this time of year, but then I know some people who relish the challenge feeling the prospect for some really big prices.

The following are my selections for Thursday evening at Tioga.  I must admit I don't really have any long shots selected but if I feel there is a longshot worth watching, I will list it under the race..
