Welcome to Mountainside Race Park's schedule for 2026! We hope to continue to offer a quality selection of undercard and stakes races offered for Quarter Horses, Appaloosas and Paint horses. Three-year-old and older Thoroughbreds are welcome in 660 yard and longer races. We have a limit of ten horses per owner per meet; owners may decide how to split entries between races. Races may be split by breed, gender, racing status, owner, etc. to ensure a fair and appropriately sized fields. Please send your entries via e-mail to (bethgustas@gmail.com). Entries must arrive no later than 8am mountain the morning of the scheduled meet. Please send entries copied & pasted into one email message or attached Word or text file.
