Remington Park opened its gates in 1988, marking a significant milestone in the world of horse racing in Oklahoma. Named after Remington Arms, the famed firearms manufacturer, the park quickly became a focal point for racing enthusiasts and bettors alike.

As one of the more popular racing venues in the Midwest, Remington Park hosts a thrilling array of races throughout the year, across both Thoroughbred (September-December) and Quarter Horse (March-June) meets.

The Oklahoma Derby, typically held in September, attracts many top-tier 3-year-old Thoroughbreds vying for glory and a substantial purse. The Springboard Mile, held in December, is a marquee event for 2-year-old Thoroughbreds and one of the earliest Kentucky Derby points races. Other key events include the Remington Park Oaks, Oklahoma Classics Night for statebred horses, and the Remington Park Futurity for Quarter Horses.
