In 2008, Los Alamitos Race Course will celebrate its 58th season of pari-mutuel racing. Instead of neighbor against neighbor match races like those that began this magnificent course, horses at Los Alamitos in the year 2008 will race for purses that total a national Quarter Horse record of over $20 million. Los Alamitos Race Course has undergone drastic changes and has enjoyed tremendous growth in recent years. The major change in the face of Los Alamitos Race Course in the past five years has been the addition of The Vessels Club, a $5 million lavish Turf Club built by owner Ed Allred and named in honor of the founding family of the track. Since its opening in December of 1995, The Vessels Club has earned the reputation as one of the finest horse racing venues in the country. In addition to plush decor and elegant surroundings, the food in The Vessels Club has earned awards from several restaurant associations including being named the top sports park restaurant in Southern California. More recent additions such as the Players Room, Rodney's Bar and Schwanie's Grill at the Gap have added to Los Alamitos' fan enjoyment.
Another Allred innovation that proved to be a major success is the Los Alamitos Two Million Futurity, a December race for 2-year-olds that in less than a decade has grown to the richest horse race for any breed run in the state of California. The Los Alamitos Two Million Futurity is the only Quarter Horse race in the country with a guaranteed $2 million purse. Los Alamitos Race Course is also the home of the Los Alamitos Super Derby, which in 2007 offered the richest purse of any race for 3-year-old Quarter Horses in the nation. So whether you are a current avid fan or a newcomer to the sport, Los Alamitos Race Course is the place to see the superstars of the Quarter Horse racing world.
