With a new season at New York's Saratoga Race Course comes a new fan experience with a never before seen, behind the scenes look at the life of a race horse.

Ahead of Opening Day for the 2022 season at Saratoga Race Course, NYRA has announced an action-packed schedule of special events for spectators this summer.

Saratoga Race Course is one of the most historic sports venues in the world and they are hiring for this year's meet. There are hundreds of jobs available and employees can be hired as young as fifteen years old. One of my first jobs was working as an usher at the Saratoga Race Course when I was just sixteen.

There wasn’t much respect shown for Kentucky Derby winner Rich Strike when the post positions were drawn for Saturday’s running of the Belmont Stakes.

After the watching the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, Mechanicville trainer Chad Brown sets himself up for the Travers Stakes at Saratoga in August.

Saturday was a perfect example of how the Kentucky Derby can be so much fun and frustrating, all at the same time. In a 20 horse field anything is possible.

Trainer Chad Brown could not have asked for a better post position for the Kentucky Derby. Zandon will start from gate 10, which is right in the middle.

As a former Kentuckian now at home in the Capital Region, I’m here to help with insider Derby party tips straight from the Bluegrass State.

Baffert will sit out 90 days as a result of finding the steroid Betamethasone in Medina Spirit’s blood after the 2021 Kentucky Derby.

The horse-racing community, which runs so deeply in Saratoga, lost one of its premiere thoroughbred racehorses earlier today. Medina Spirit has passed away.

It seems like the Saratoga Race Course just closed. Now with the weather getting colder and having to wait almost an entire year, we have something to look forward to. The dates are out for the 2022 Saratoga Meet.

The 2021 meet at Saratoga Race Course is going so well, that horses from around the country are risking it all to be part of the fun.

It's the only partnership like this so far in the state and representatives are hoping the perfect timing of it will kick it off as a success.

Like Saratoga Springs but hate horses? Shame on you. Just kidding. I feel you.

Considering I’ve spent nearly my entire life in Saratoga Springs, horse racing is near and dear to my heart. When it comes to placing bets, I’m “that guy.” I usually get there ridiculously early and set up in a shaded area with my program, “Pink Sheet” and pen. I sit there analyzing each horse’s stats like a mad scientist.
