We had a blast watching the horse races. Tried a bit at the casino and had fun. Staff is super helpful and friendly. Just wish they had a non smoking area casino.

The staff was very friendly and the casino was attractive. Our visit was mid-morning so the casino was not crowded and we left prior to the horse racing events.

like to come for the horse races mixed with a bit of slot action. My favorite casino as it's much less smokey than the others. Drink staff is very friendly also.

I got hooked on the ponies when in Albuquerque NM. They have/had the races at the State Fair Grounds. I did not win one time in the 4 years I went there. My luck was never broken when I moved back home. I have lost enough on the ponies to buy a few for myself. lol But the beauty of... More

This is the perfect sized casino...not too big, not too small. No table games, but thats okay with me. PLENTY of slots, all denominations and design. They are a fun feeling casino. There always seems to be some kind of give away going on and you can earn a free buffet with just 30 credits on your Total Rewards card!... More

This casino is not close to the others so you will have to drive about 5+ miles to get there unless your driving by then I would suggest you stop and create yourself an experience. I like this place sometimes because during the weekdays it's a ghost town and you don't have to fight for a machine. I have had... More

not a flashy Harrah's but was only casino not on a riverboat! They set up drinks carts among the slots and you just go up and order what you want to drink. Free soft drinks in casino in soda fountains you can self-serve. Alot of slot choices, didn't win here, but that seemed to be the theme for this past... More
