Meeting: Arizona Downs held a live-racing season in the summer of 2019 for the first time in nine years. The meet was nearly derailed due to a lack of access to out-of-state signals for its Off-Track Betting locations, but the track continued to hold races through the beginning of September.
History: Formerly known as Yavapai Downs, Arizona Downs re-opened in 2019 after a nine-year hiatus. Gary Miller purchased the property, located in Prescott Valley, AZ, in 2013 for $5.5 million but two years later was forced to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy and the track’s operations ceased. In 2018, the track was purchased for $3.2 million in bankruptcy court and the new owner, J&J Enterprises, was determined to revive racing at the facility, which was achieved in 2019.
Facilities: Horse Racing is conducted over a one-mile dirt oval. There are several dining options at the track, including The View Restaurant and Bar and the Arizona Craft Brew Central. Arizona Downs also hosts concerts throughout its summer season.
