The field races in the 2020 Oklahoma Derby at Remington Park

The 2022 Thoroughbred season at Remington Park features a stakes schedule that is once again led by the $400,000 Oklahoma Derby (G3) and the $400,000 Springboard Mile. The season runs Aug. 19-Dec. 17.

The Oklahoma Derby will headline a robust program of eight stakes races Sept. 25. Also included on the loaded card is the $200,000 Remington Park Oaks (G3) for 3-year-old fillies at 1 1/16 miles. The Derby and the Oaks are the only graded stakes races on the Remington Park schedule. 

The top 2-year-old race of the season, the Springboard Mile, is the main event as the season concludes Dec. 17. The $100,000 Trapeze Stakes, for 2-year-old fillies, also at a mile, shares the final program that includes six stakes races. 

The stakes schedule has 34 races with total purses of more than $3.5 million. The first stakes race takes place on the season's opening night when the $175,000 Governor's Cup for 3-year-olds and up, going 1 1/8 miles, is the main event.

The schedule also includes the annual Oklahoma Classics Night Oct. 21, featuring races in divisional categories for the top Oklahoma-bred horses. Purses for Remington Park's top night of state-bred racing will total more than $1 million.
