Yavapai Downs Racetrack History

Arizona is known for organizing summer horseracing events for a long period. In the past, the racing used to take place in the Prescott Downs. Due to not availability of required space the racetrack was closed down in 2000. And a new site cropped up in the nearby town of Prescott Valley named Yavapai Downs Racetrack. On its grand opening, more than thirty five thousand people gathered on the track. Since the racetrack was inaugurated in 2001, Yavapai Downs Racetrack has been organizing thoroughbred and quarter horseracing meets in every summer.
