Aqueduct Racetrack is a Thoroughbred horse racing facility and casino in the South Ozone Park and Jamaica neighborhoods of Queens, New York City, United States. Aqueduct is the only racetrack located within New York City limits. Its racing meets are usually from late October/early November through April. The racetrack is located adjacent to a casino called Resorts World New York City. The track itself has three courses. The main track has a circumference of 1+1⁄8 miles. Inside of the main track are two courses: the 1 mile Main Turf Course, and the Inner Turf Course measuring 7.065 furlongs. The track has seating capacity of 17,000 and total capacity of 40,000. The facility houses the headquarters of the New York Racing Association. In December 2022 the New York Racing Association formally announced its intention to upgrade the facilities at nearby Belmont Park to make it suitable to host year-round thoroughbred racing and training, which would ultimately lead to the closure of Aqueduct Racetrack. The plans are contingent on NYRA receiving state-backed bonds to fund the construction projects at Belmont.
