Next spring, you'll be able to play the slots as horses race by.
Saratoga Casino Hotel has begun work on an outdoor gaming terrace that will include 50 slot machines along the apron of the casino's harness track.

The idea isn't unique. Rivers Casino in Schenectady has had an outdoor gaming terrace ever since it opened, a spokesman said. And the Horseshoe Baltimore Casino and the Maryland Live! Casino Hotel in Hanover, Md., also have outdoor gaming, according to the American Gaming Association.
But outdoor gaming is rare, and a popular enough idea that Saratoga Casino Hotel decided to pursue it.
'We're very much looking forward to adding this highly requested amenity to our property,' said Alex Tucker, general manager of Saratoga Casino Hotel. 'This project will be the first of a number of new exciting changes we have planned for 2019.'

The 1,800-square-foot terrace will include infrared heating panels for the colder months, while ceiling fans will provide a cooling breeze in the summer. Louvered glass panels are intended to provide enough air circulation that will permit smoking.
Included is an entrance into the casino from the terrace.
