45 Running on Sunday, August 25, 2024
The turf race for New York-breds is named for the U. S. Military Academy, which is situated on the west bank of the Hudson River about 135 miles south of Saratoga. In 1778, Gen. George Washington personally selected Thaddeus Kosciuszko, one of the heroes of Saratoga, to design the fortifications for West Point, which is the oldest continuously occupied military post in the United States. Following the Revolutionary War, several soldiers and legislators, including Washington, Knox, Hamilton and John Adams, desiring to eliminate America's wartime reliance on foreign engineers and artillerists, urged the creation of an institution devoted to the arts and sciences of warfare. In 1802, President Thomas Jefferson signed legislation establishing the United States Military Academy, after ensuring that those attending the Academy would be representative of a democratic society. First run in 1980 for 3-year-olds at 1 1/8 miles on the main track, the West Point was run at 1 1/16 miles from 1981-87 and returned to that distance in 2011. From 1988-2010, it was contested at 1 1/8 miles on the turf.
