Then the package offers you the chance to watch world-class thoroughbreds during morning training and get a glimpse of the life horse people have. You could see your favorite thoroughbred horse prepare for the upcoming live races you could both watch and place bets on. When this part of the day is over, it is time for the open-air trolley ride from Saratoga Race Course to Old Tavern Farm.
It is a round trip and you could enjoy great views in the meantime. The next step of this experience is a guided walking tour of an active thoroughbred breeding farm where you could learn even more about the horses and their trainers and team. It would span over an hour and a half.
