The Meadowlands Racetrack in New Jersey took in nearly $3.5 million in sports bets during its first nine days of accepting such bets.

And most of that came from two weekends that sandwiched a dead period for major professional sports caused by baseball's All-Star break Cameron Meredith Jersey , when there was little to bet on, with basketball and soccer World Cup over, and football and hockey months away from beginning their seasons.

Meadowlands operator Jeff Gural told The Associated Press it accepted just under $3.5 million worth of sports bets since it began taking them on July 14.

"We did OK," Gural said Monday. "Our goal the first weekend was to exceed $1million which we did. The next four days were quiet with nothing to bet on due to the All-Star break."

This past Saturday, with baseball having resumed, the track took in over $650 Hunter Henry Jersey ,000, and additional bets on baseball and other sports came in on Sunday.

Gural said he is pleased with the track's initial performance "despite the fact that we are not at full strength and only have 10 live tellers windows open."

The FanDuel Sportsbook at the Meadowlands will be expanded. It is located in East Rutherford, in the same sports complex six miles from New York City where the NFL's New York Giants and Jets play.

So far, two tracks, the Meadowlands and Monmouth Park, and two Atlantic City casinos Derek Rivers Jersey , the Borgata and Ocean Resort, offer sports betting in New Jersey. But many others have applied for permission to begin offering sports betting, in person and online, before the start of the NFL season in September.

Monmouth and the casinos reaped $16.4 million in the first two weeks of June.

New Jersey won a U.S. Supreme Court case on May 14 clearing the way for all 50 states to offer legal sports betting should they so desire. It began offering sports betting on June 14.

The latest statistics on how much the casinos and tracks took in from sports betting will be released by the state Division of Gaming Enforcement on Aug. 14.

The only two-run sprint downhill scheduled for the women’s World Cup this season has been called off after training was canceled for a second straight day on Friday.

The international ski federation replaced Saturday’s event with a one-run downhill from a lowered start as the mandatory training session will now be held immediately before that race.

”It’s a pity,” said FIS women’s race director Atle Skaardal, adding that the traditional downhill scheduled for Sunday remained unaffected. That race will be the last before the Pyeongchang Games open next week. The women’s Olympic downhill is scheduled for Feb. 21.

Once used as an emergency solution when conditions made a proper downhill impossible Michael Thomas Jersey , the federation is attempting to turn the two-run race on a shortened course into a regular format at the World Cup.

The 30-fastest racers from the opening leg get to start in reverse order in the final run, making sure the winner will only be known when the last racer has come down. The new format could possibly replace the unpopular combined event, which adds results of one downhill or super-G run with one slalom run.

The last downhill with two runs was held in Zauchensee, Austria, two years ago, also as a late replacement for a regular race. The event was won by 2010 Olympic downhill champion Lindsey Vonn.

Organizers first delayed Friday’s training by 2 + hours before calling it off Sebastian Janikowski Jersey , a day after bad weather canceled the first session. Course workers needed more time as the slope had too many weak spots after Thursday’s rain and snowfall.

”The hill transformed in some places during inspection” on Friday morning, Skaardal said. ”I am confident we have a good race track ready for tomorrow.”

On Saturday, the 44 racers will do a training run over the full Kandahar course, but it will be shortened by 750 meters (820 yards) for the race two hours later.

”Doing two runs from the top shortly after each other would be too much,” Skaardal said.

Sunday’s race will be held over the full distance of nearly 3 kilometers (1.8 miles).
