Emerald Downs
Emerald Downs is a horse-racing track in Auburn, Washington, United States. It opened in 1996, at Ron Crockett Dr.
Saratoga Race Course
Saratoga Race Course is a horse-racing track in Saratoga Springs, New York, United States. It opened on August 3, 1863, and is the oldest organized sporting venue of any kind in the United States. It is typically open for racing from late July through early September.
History
On June 20, 1996, Emerald Downs was first opened, with the inaugural 100 days meet running through November 4. It replaced Longacres Racetrack, which was closed in September 1992 after sixty seasons of racing.
For roughly $70 Million, the land where Emerald Downs is located was bought by the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe in 2002. By purchasing the track buildings and facilities, they formed Emerald Downs Racing LLC in 2015. The Tribe also improved the 1,150 square feet (107 m2) infield big screen.
Named after Seattle, the Emerald City, Facing Mount Rainier, there located the Emerald Downs (Auburn, Washington, a half-mile east of Highway 167).
Track Details
It is a thoroughbred racetrack with one-mile (1.6 km) oval. The tote board is in the center of the oval track, and the track surface is made of geotextile fabric, washed rock, coarse sand, and one-component track material. However, there is no turf course.
The grandstand can capacitate 2,200 parking lots for free for the General Lots, while the preferred parking will cost $10, and the valet parking costs $15 ($20 Premium Days).
They also have a shuttle Service scheduled every 9 AM – 3 PM on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. For admission of the live racing, an Emerald Rewards card is necessary, including access to the first five levels of the grandstand, the Paddock, and the Park area.
For the simulcast admission, children aged 17 years old and under can be admitted FREE. However, children aged 13 years old and under must be accompanied by an adult. Military personnel with current I.D. can also enjoy FREE admission..

History
John Hunter, who became the first chairman of The Jockey Club, and William R. Travers built Saratoga Race Course. The original track was built across Union Avenue from the present Saratoga Race Course at the current location of the Oklahoma Track (training track), which opened the following year. Since 1864 the track has been the site of the Travers Stakes, the oldest major thoroughbred horse race in the United States, which is the main draw of the annual summer race meeting. The Saratoga meet originally consisted of only four days, but over time was lengthened, and for many years, the meet lasted for four weeks. In the 1990’s it was lengthened to five weeks. Today it is a six-week meeting ending on Labor Day. In 2009, NYRA extended the 2010 racing meet by 4 days. From 1943 to 1945, racing was not held at Saratoga Race Course due to travel restrictions during the war. During those years, the stakes races that would have been run at Saratoga Race Course were contested at Belmont Park instead.
Saratoga Race Course has two well-known nicknames — The Spa (for the nearby mineral springs), and the “Graveyard of Champions” (for the upsets that have occurred there). Man o’ War suffered his only defeat in 21 starts while racing at Saratoga Race Course; Secretariat was defeated at Saratoga Race Course by Onion after winning the Triple Crown; and Gallant Fox was beaten by 100-1 long shot Jim Dandy in the 1930 Travers Stakes. In 1999, Saratoga Race Course was rated as Sports Illustrated’s #10 sports venue of the 20th Century.
As is the case with the other two tracks operated by the New York Racing Association – Aqueduct and Belmont Park – there are three separate tracks in the main course at Saratoga Race Course.
