HORSE RACES have been held at the Sopot Hippodrome for many years.  Horses from the stables of Warsaw and Wrocław mounted by the best Polish riders participate in these meetings.  Additionally, races of French trotters mounted by the representatives of ShiUK are held.

During the races, parimutuel betting is a typical practice. Among others, the spectators bet on the the winning horse, the winning horse and the runner-up, the three first positions or positions to be won by a particular horse.
