Thoroughbred Racing : 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.
American Thoroughbred Racing : The 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 American Stud Book was begun in 1868.)
Harness Racing : The racing of horses in harness dates back to ancient
times, but the sport virtually disappeared with the fall of the Roman
Empire.
Point-to-point races : Point-to-point races are held for amateurs on
about 120 courses throughout the British Isles. Originally run straight
across country (hence the name), these races are now conducted on oval
tracks with built-in fences, often on farmland.
