Saratoga Race Course

Today, patrons can watch nearly 40 graded stakes races, thoroughbred races, steeple chases, and year-round harness racing on the track.  They can enjoy some of Saratoga Race Track’s unique features, such as a view of the horses and jockeys being lead to the paddocks, the Big Red Spring in the picnic grounds, one of the natural mineral springs Saratoga is famous for, the canoe in the middle of the track which is annually painted with the colors of the stable which wins the Travers race, a hand-rung bell which sounds exactly 17 minutes before each post time, twilight racing and more.
