Whitney Weekend Experience 2026

Celebrate one of the most anticipated weekends of the Saratoga meet with our Whitney Premium Weekend Experience, designed exclusively for MyRacehorse owners. Taking place Friday, August 7 through Sunday, August 9, this experience features a series of thoughtfully curated events that capture the magic, tradition, and energy of racing at The Spa.

The weekend begins Friday morning at Saratoga Race Course, where owners will gather on the frontside to watch morning training and experience the quiet excitement of the track as horses prepare for the day ahead. Following the morning at the track, the group will travel to Mountain View Stallion Farm for a behind-the-scenes look at a working breeding operation. Owners will have the opportunity to tour the farm and see resident stallions, including Fire At Willand Leinster, while learning more about the breeding side of the Thoroughbred industry.

Saturday is dedicated to the main event—Whitney Day at Saratoga Race Course. Owners will enjoy access to one of Saratoga’s most iconic hospitality spaces located within the historic Victorian Grandstand. This premium experience includes a seasonal buffet and unlimited beverages, providing the perfect setting to take in a full day of world-class racing and stakes action.

On Sunday, the focus shifts to education and behind-the-scenes access with a conformation clinic held at the Fasig-Tipton Sales Pavilion. Led by members of the MyRacehorse bloodstock team and industry professionals, the clinic offers expert insight into how young horses are evaluated. Following the session, owners will enjoy a guided tour of the sales grounds alongside the agents, gaining a firsthand look at the selection process used to identify future racing prospects.

This premium weekend is designed to offer a balance of racing, education, and access—creating a memorable Saratoga experience for MyRacehorse owners.

The cost for the Whitney Premium Weekend Experience is $475 per person and is non-refundable. To ensure a more intimate and immersive experience, participation is limited to 40 owners.
