Del Mar Racetrack History
The Del Mar Racetrack was built on the Del Mar Fairgrounds in 1936. The land was purchased for $25,000 from the State Department of Fairs & Expositions. Actors and horse racing enthusiasts Bing Crosby and Pat O'Brien helped fund the track's construction and were members of the Del Mar's board of directors. When the track opened on July 3, 1937, Bing Crosby was at the gate to welcome fans.Del Mar Guide: Del Mar Racetrack History Del Mar Historical Society: Mar Racetrack History -
