Meadowlands Racing & Entertainment formerly known as Meadowlands Racetrack started their journey in the gambling industry more than 40 years ago as a horse racing track in New Jersey. Since then, the “Big M” as many bettors call it has been dedicated to thoroughbred racing, standardbred racing and harness racing. So it came as no surprise that the bookie decided to open a sportsbook at the track. It is the fourth legal venue in NJ and it operates under the name of FanDuel Sportsbook - the result of the partnership between Paddy Power Betfair and Meadowlands. Both companies also reached an agreement to launch an online and mobile sportsbook which hopefully will accept bets by the time football season starts.

With their most perfect location next to the home stadium of New York Giants and Jets this is practically guaranteed. The bookie has all chances to reach unprecedented levels among the land-based sportsbooks.
