The horse-racing community, which runs so deeply in Saratoga, lost one of its premiere thoroughbred racehorses earlier today. Medina Spirit has passed away.
This home in Saratoga Springs sits on 3.5 acres. It features four bedrooms and five bathrooms along with a movie room and a billiards room. There are 5100 square feet of beautiful woodworking and subtle touches of the Saratoga Race Course. Well except the beautiful statue out front of the horse and jockey and the starting gate backsplash in the kitchen. This home sold for $1.7 million. The asking price was $1.9 million.
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.
It's hard to believe that this is the last week of the Saratoga Race Course season. To commemorate the final week of racing the New York Racing Association (NYRA) is showing its appreciation to the racing fans.
Every summer since 1863, Saratoga Race Course has featured some of the best horse racing action in the country. Wednesday, a piece of that history can be yours.
As you get deeper into August, the weekends get bigger at Saratoga Race Course. This weekend is no exception. Friday looks to be a terrific day at the Spa highlighted by the 8th running of the Tale of The Cat handicap. Saturday will feature two big stakes races, the 116th running of the Saratoga Special and the main event on Saturday, the Fourstardave Handicap. Chad Brown's Raging Bull will be the horse to beat in that one and Sunday is the first giveaway of the year featuring the Saratoga Cooler Bag. Giveaways are limited, so come early.
It's Military Appreciation Day at the Saratoga Race Course this Thursday, July 22nd. The New York Racing Association (NYRA) will be honoring military members and veterans throughout the racing day.
But what makes Saratoga Race Course so special? Is it the lure for some to step back in time with men and women attending a sporting event dressed in their most fashionable summer clothing? Or is the opportunity to stake your claim to a few picnic tables and room for your pop up tent inside one of the sports world's national treasures. It's probably some of that plus the beauty of the well cared for historic structure but maybe it's the ghosts that lie within the walls or on the track, that brings people back year after year.
