Beulah Park

Beulah Park is a horse racing facility in Grove City, Ohio that has two tracks that feature thoroughbred racing. Founded in 1923, Beulah Park has had a rich heritage of providing quality racing to race fans in the Midwest. In fact, the track holds the title of being Ohio's "first original" race track; to this day, it is considered the "Little Saratoga" of the Midwest.

In recent years, Beulah Park's reputation has been enhanced by a multi-million dollar redevelopment and restoration plan.

Beulah Park has a Winter / Spring racing season that spans from January to April, and a Fall racing that takes place from September to December.

Each year, the track also hosts major stakes events. Among those it has hosted are the Wintergreen Handicap, Scarlet & Gray Handicap, Ohio Freshman Stakes, Edward Babst Memorial Handicap and the Howard B. Noonan Stakes.
