Prescott’s Only Off-Track Betting Facility
Bet the Ponies Without Leaving Whiskey Row
Matt’s is home to the only off-track horse betting facility in Prescott. Live simulcast racing runs daily from Turf Paradise.
Beyond Arizona, you can bet tracks from all over the country: Santa Anita, Belmont, Keeneland, Del Mar, and plenty more. Racing forms are available right here. So is a barstool, a cold draft, and somebody who will absolutely tell you why your pick is wrong.
New to This? Good.
Nobody at this establishment is going to make you feel stupid for asking what an exacta is. Come in, ask for a form, tell the person behind the glass it’s your first time, and they’ll walk you through it. Two dollars will get you into the game.
Fair warning: this is exactly how people end up here every Saturday morning for the next fifteen years.
Make an Afternoon of It
The races run from 11 to 7. The band goes on at 8:30. There is a version of Saturday where you never once have to move your truck, and we’d like to be the ones to point that out to you.
