By the time humans began to keep written records, horse racing was an
organized sport in all major civilizations from Central Asia to the
Mediterranean. Both chariot and mounted horse racing were events in the
ancient Greek Olympics by 638 BC, and the sport became a public
obsession in the Roman Empire.
British settlers brought horses and horse racing with them to the New
World, with the first racetrack laid out on Long Island as early as
1665. Although the sport became a popular local pastime, the development
of organized racing did not arrive until after the Civil War.
The racing of horses in harness dates back to ancient times, but the
sport virtually disappeared with the fall of the Roman Empire. The
history of modern HARNESS RACING begins in America, where racing
trotting horses over country roads became a popular rural pastime by the
end of the 18th century. The first tracks for harness racing were
constructed in the first decade of the 19th century, and by 1825 harness
racing was an institution at hundreds of country fairs across the nation.
