It was absolutely pouring in central jersey this morning. I'm guessing they will be off the turf and the MTO horses will be in play.

Default Monmouth Park question

Silly question for those of you who go to Monmouth park.. I will be in Union Beach this weekend for daughter's softball tournament. Want to try and catch some late races and the Belmont . Its been 20 years since I lived in the area, and I always remember the traffic on wkends. Does it make sense for me to go back out to the parkway and head south , or go down the rte 35/36 way ? Thx for any help. Sorry to highjack the thread.

I think it's a pick your poison situation. I'm guessing 35 might be your best bet. 36 will have you going through the thick of the beach scene including the Highlands which gets really congested. I'm not sure but I also think that there are a few roads that break off from 35 that might take you straight through Little Silver right on to Monmouth. Parkway might be an option but it depends on how long and how far it will take you to get back on it. Also depending on the time, shore traffic can be an issue (always take the local!).

Avoid the Rt 36 Highlands Bridge at all costs! They are doing major construction there and weekend traffic is unbelievable. Coming from UB I would take the GSP south to exit 109 (Red Bank) and take the back roads through Little Silver and Oceanport to the track. Feel free to PM me if you want detailed directions.

All of my selections scratched today and was lucky enough that the two of the post time favorites finished first and the other finished second.
