Horse racing history on the Hempstead Plains did not start with the opening of Belmont Park in 1905, but 240 years prior to that. It was in 1668, where the first English Governor of the Province of New York, Sir Richard Nicholls would celebrate racing of the best horses through all the Colonies and award the victors of this sport with a Silver Cup twice a year.
