Thoroughbred Horse Racing in Pennsylvania

Thoroughbred horse racing is a popular sport in Pennsylvania.

The tracks offer a variety of races, including stakes races, allowance races, and claiming races. Stakes races are the most prestigious races and offer the highest prize purses. Allowance races are for horses that have a certain amount of earnings. Claiming races are for horses that can be bought for a set price.

Pennsylvania is also home to the Pennsylvania Derby, which is a Grade 1 stakes race that is run at Parx Racing each year. The Pennsylvania Derby is one of the most important races in the state and is a major stepping stone for horses that are hoping to compete in the Triple Crown.

In addition to live racing, the tracks also offer a variety of other amenities, such as pari-mutuel betting, simulcasting, and dining. They also host a variety of events throughout the year, such as concerts, festivals, and horse shows.
