The 2008 Online Racing Application is now online. This will be the only way to apply for racing privileges at Harrah's Chester. Initial racing applications prior to the start of the 2008 racing season will be due by Sunday, March 23.

Thereafter, all new racing applications and addition of horses to racing applications will be reviewed each Sunday by Harrah's Chester and the P.H.H.A. Please plan accordingly if you plan on racing in the near future. PLEASE NOTE: the racing application should only be submitted by the TRAINER. Once a trainer has had horses accepted to race, any changes must be made by the APPLICATION UPDATE form. Any horse that races, in a non-stake purse race, other than at Harrah's Chester after being accepted and having started at Harrah's Chester must be re-submitted to race here.

Ask anyone regarding the race track surface and the facilities. Horsemen agree that it is by far one of the very best places to come and race at during the year. Harrah's Chester boasts one of the fastest 5/8 mile 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. 

The track is easy to truck into as it is conveniently located in Chester, Pennsylvania off Exit 8 (Ridley Park) on I-95 just south of the Philadelphia International Airport. The paddock and racing offices are located across the railroad tracks at the end of Morton Avenue just off Route 291. The facility is situated in the tri-state area of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware, and is a very short ride from nearby Maryland as well.

Racing applications, driver's agreement forms, race classifications, condition sheets and more are available online. If you want to race at Harrah's Chester, you can find what you need right here.
