Whether you’re a horse racing fan or not, this is going to be one weekend you don’t want to miss. Oaklawn Park has announced that both Rachel Alexandra and Zenyatta will race on April 9 in the Apple Blossom Invitational.
This matchup has been the big story in racing for months, especially after Rachel Alexandra beat out Zenyatta for Horse of the Year. Oaklawn’s owner raised the purse for this race from $500,000 to $5 million IF both horses agreed to race.
The Apple Blossom will take place the day before the $1 million Arkansas Derby. Hot Springs hotels are already reporting being sold out for the weekend, so if don’t want to miss what’s being called the potentially largest sporting event in Arkansas history, call us to make your reservations now!
