The track's first harness racing season opened on September 10, 2006. Live Racing days will include Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The live Harrah's Philadelphia horse racing season runs from March through December with a 12:40 pm post time for most race cards. The best pacers and trotters in North America are showcased at Harrah's Philadelphia Casino & Racetrack during its racing season as part of the stakes schedule.
Take it from the horsemen: the Harrah's Philadelphia Racetrack is one of the very best places for harness racing during the year, boasting one of the fastest 5/8 mile horse racing surfaces anywhere with its first-of-its-kind in North America miracle turn that actually extends over the Delaware River with a specially constructed bridge.
