One of the jewels of the Northwest is the Emerald Downs Racetrack. Situated in Auburn, Washington, with an amazing view of Mt. Rainier, it's a really fun place to spend an evening or sunny Saturday with friends and family.
The good folks of Emerald Downs gave us amazing access to record a podcast episode there: we met the horses, talked with an amazing jockey, and heard the dulcet tones of the race announcer up-close.
Have a listen, then visit the Downs for their annual Longacres Mile — the most prestigious horse race in the area — or the wiener-dog races, if dachshunds (and wiener wanna-bes) are more your style! There's plenty for the whole family to enjoy, and who knows? You could just leave with more $ than you had when you walked in!
Also, don't forget to check out the Horse Racing NW podcast with Vince Bruun and Joe Withee for all the latest goings on at Emerald Downs!
