List of horse racing venues
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is an incomplete list, which may never be able to satisfy particular standards for completeness. You can help by expanding it with reliably sourced entries.
This is a list of horse racing venues, sorted by country. In most English-speaking countries they are called "racecourses", in the United States "racetracks". In many non-English speaking countries the term used is "hippodrome".

- The Oak Tree Racing Association is not a horse racing venue, but rather a non-profit corporation that promotes racing in Southern California. It conducted racing meets from 1969 to 2010, renting out Santa Anita each fall (autumn). In 2011, after the California Horse Racing Board awarded Oak Tree's race dates to Santa Anita, Oak Tree reached a deal to lease its 13 stakes races to Santa Anita. In 2012, Oak Tree added two new stakes at Del Mar.
