Thursday’s $125,000 Rick Violette, a 1 1/16-mile Mellon turf route for New York-bred sophomores, headlines the card at Saratoga Race Course. The Rick Violette is named for the late multiple graded stakes-winning trainer who served as President of the New York Thoroughbred Horseman’s Association (NYTHA) and was a founding member of the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (TAA).

Thoroughbred Aftercare Day:

NYRA will partner with NYTHA and the New York Thoroughbred Breeders (NYTB) in hosting the fourth annual New York Thoroughbred Aftercare Day. The day will pay tribute to an array of organizations involved in finding new homes and careers for retired racehorses, and is designed to highlight the work of the New York State aftercare community.
