Walking Tours of Ridgewood Ranch
Visit the special place that Seabiscuit called home!
With the destruction and development of Glenn Riddle Farm, home of Seabiscuit's greatest rival War Admiral and his great grandsire the legendary Man O War, Ridgewood Ranch becomes one of the few existing sites that can depict the time in our history when a small racehorse with a great heart captured an entire nation.
All Guided Tours Include
- Hear historical facts, fun stories
and poignant memories.
- View Seabiscuit memorabilia.
- Tour Seabiscuit's Stud Barn and the
Mare Barn that was part of Howard's
Thoroughbred breeding program.
- Visit Charles Howard's historic
craftsman style ranch house built in
1905 by William Van Arsdale.

commemorative souvenir.
