OWNER FOR AN EVENING
Get VIP access to the Island's most beloved tradtion
Harness racing has a rich history in Prince Edward Island dating back over 150 years. Now you can feel what it's like to own one of these magnificent horses as it moves along the rail charging to the finish line.
Before the races begin, your Red Shores representative will take you to the barn area to meet your horse and trainer to discuss race strategy. Then you'll head up to the Top of the Park restaurant for their incredible buffet dinner.
Once in the Top of the Park you will be greeted by the race hostess who will explain how to read a race program and how to place a wager. If your horse wins the race, you’ll be escorted to the Winner’s Circle to have your picture taken with your horse and driver, an experience you can only get on Prince Edward Island!
This experience was developed in association with the Red Shores Racetrack and Casino.
