The Aiken Trials is the first leg of Aiken’s Triple Crown. The Aiken Trials is flat racing for the horses working out of Aiken’s Training Track and is a very popular tailgating event in Aiken. It was interesting to watch the babies race, some of them clearly did not want to be in the starting gate. The Aiken Steeplechase and Aiken Polo make up the other two legs of the triple crown in Aiken. You can read more about the Aiken Trials here
