About Horse Racing Events
Horse racing, often called "The Sport of Kings," encompasses flat racing, steeplechase/jump racing, harness racing, and quarter horse racing. Thoroughbred flat racing is the most prestigious form, featuring famous events like the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes (the Triple Crown). Racing tests the speed, stamina, and heart of highly trained athletes, both equine and human.
