Whitney Day

Whitney Day is a staple of summer racing at Saratoga! The Grade 1 Whitney attracts top older horses, and has been won by many of thoroughbred racing's biggest stars.

Each year, Saratoga is bathed in pink in honor of Marylou Whitney, one of racing's finest ambassadors. Don your best pink outfit!
