Remington Park
Remington Park is a Racino (horse-racing track and Casino) in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United States. It opened in 1988, at One Remington Place.
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
The track is the first world-class pari-mutuel track and legalized gambling venue with a casino in Oklahoma. It opened on September 1, 1988, and was constructed by Edward J. DeBartolo Sr. It is situated just off Martin Luther King Avenue, south of I-44 and west of I-35, in an area known as Oklahoma City’s Adventure District. It is also known as the only American track that utilized synthetic surface race track (utilized grains of sand coated with a wax polymer) named Equitrack for races at the time. However, the Equitrack experiment was a failure as the surface did not hold up during the very warm Oklahoma summers. Hence, they replaced Equitrack with the natural dirt track in 1991. In 1995, the track acquired its first booster shot when Off Track Betting was established. Then in 1999, Magna Group (MEC) took over the track management, and just after two years (2001), the first night racing was launched. Casino gaming was then installed on the track in December 2005. However, during the 2009 auction, Global Gaming RP obtained the facility from Magna Entertainment Corporation and officially owned the track on January 1, 2010, until to this day.
Track Details
The main dirt track with a sandy loam surface is one mile in circumference, with the inner turf course measuring seven furlongs that feature Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse meet. The turf course is 7/8 mile with a Bermuda grass surface and a 1 1/8 chute. The stable area can accommodate 1,400 horses with 20 stall stakes barn. They also offer over 750 games and restaurants, cafes, arcades, and park areas.

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.
