The card supporting Saturday's $1 million Hambletonian at The Meadowlands shapes up to be a blockbuster afternoon of harness racing with nearly $4 million in Grand Circuit stakes featuring the sport's finest.

The $500,000 Hambletonian Oaks fields ten terrific fillies and promises to be the first match-up of the season for last week's elimination winners Manchego and Phaetosive

The John Cashman Memorial drew an overflow field and a dozen will go the route distance of a mile and an eighth with Hannelore Hanover again taking on male rivals. The Dr. John Steele Memorial for mare trotters is a field of nine with Ariana G taking on more accomplished, established older rivals for the first time.

The Sam McKee Memorial for older horse pacers and Lady Liberty for their female counterparts also drew the maximum allowable of twelve including the division leaders McWicked and Shartin N. They'll both go the route distance as well.

The Cane Pace will field nine including the Meadowlands Pace winner Courtly Choice who is a supplement to the race and three from the Tony Alagna barn including American History, Babes Dig Me and Stay Hungry. The companion filly stake known as the Shady Daisy has a solid group of eight including Mistletoe Shalee winner Kissin In The Sand and rival Youaremycandygirl.

Rounding out the "Greatest Day in Trotting" are freshman stakes, the Peter Haughton and Jim Doherty Memorials with ten stars of the future in each.
