Never been, those who have said it is terrible. It is a shame one of the Triple Crown races is run there. Time to move it to a modern venue.

I've always said they should move the second leg of the triple crown to Sam Houston Race Park in Houston.

it's like 800 years old. they need to move it away a few years and let them rebuild/remodel. those lockers for the jockeys look like fenway's locker rooms.

Why do the Kentucky fans on this site collectively have the worst opinions on anything?

It's weird I've never noticed it before. But yesterday I was watching the race there and noticed it was surrounded by chain link fence and projects.

It's their nature. Unless it involves UK, they pretty much bash everything else

My best memory at Sam Houston Race Park is going to college day there during high school and picking up my LSU pamphlet
