Dover Downs Harness Racing The return of fall means the return of fast horses and the country’s most talented drivers to the 5/8-mile harness racing oval at Dover Downs. Every year, Dover Downs kicks off its 6-month long racing season with The Progress Pace, the track’s signature event with a total purse of over $400,000 up for grabs to the best three-year-old pacing colts and geldings in the sport. Starting in late October, the racing continues through early April, and is sure to wow crowds with lightning-fast speeds, hair-splitting photo finishes, and plenty of longshots! The views of the action are wonderful whether dining in the finely appointed Winner’s Circle® Restaurant, or simply relaxing in the spacious grandstand. Post times are 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and 5:30 p.m. on weekends. Reservations are suggested for the Winner’s Circle Restaurant and can be made by calling 302-674-4600. Parking and admission are free.
