Between The Hedges: Inside The Cross Country Pick 5 Sponsored by:
The Cross-Country Pick 5 wagers were conceived with the idea of collaborating with other tracks to showcase the best races that the industry has to offer.
The wager also serves as an opportunity to shine the spotlight on events the larger racing public may not be aware of, like the Far Hills Races, which offers a stakes-laden card each fall highlighted by the Grade 1 Grand National Hurdle. The success of the Cross Country Pick 5 wager is not necessarily measured by pool size as much as it is by increased exposure for our partners and the good of our industry as a whole.

Horseracing Safety Act Banning Doping Signed Into Law - 7:40 am
Animal Wellness Foundation News:
WASHINGTON, D.C. In the biggest gain for animal welfare in 2020, and in the $900 billion year-end spending bill, President Trump signed into law Sunday night, the Horseracing Integrity and Safety (HISA) Safety Act, H.R. 1754/S. 4547, concluding an eight-year campaign to end medication abuses leading to breakdowns and injuries and deaths on tracks across the nation.
The House passed H.R. 1754, led by U.S. Representatives Paul Tonko, D-N.Y., and Andy Barr, R-Ky. by a voice vote in September, but the Senate had not taken up S. 4547 introduced by U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and Senators Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. that promises to end the era of widespread doping of horses in Thoroughbred racing in America.
