| Steeplechase horse racing returns to Monmouth Park Racetrack Posted: 22 Sep 2010 06:15 PM PDT OCEANPORT — Monmouth Park Racetrack will host the Monmouth Park-Meridian Health Steeplechase Festival on Saturday, marking a return of the steeplechase racing tradition in Monmouth County. The event had been called the Monmouth Hunt. "We are very proud to partner with Meridian Health and the National Steeplechase Association to make this not only an exciting day of racing, but a wonderful day that benefits the entire community," said Dennis Robinson, president and CEO of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, which operates the racetrack, in a statement. Proceeds from the event will benefit patient care programs at Meridian medical centers, which include Jersey Shore University Medical Center and K. Hovnanian Children's Medical Center in Neptune, Ocean Medical Center in Brick and Riverview Medical Center in Red Bank. The event begins with traditional flat races, followed by steeplechase races, where the speed of flat-track racing is combined with hurdles for the horses to jump over. Festivities also include family friendly activities, food and entertainment, organizers said. Ticket prices range from $35 to $200, and $1,200 for a luxury box. For tickets and sponsorship packages, call 877-748-4667. Visit www.MeridianSteeplechase.com or www.MonmouthPark.com for more information.
