Colonial downs
Colonial downs is a horse-racing track in New Kent County, Virginia, United States. It opened in 1997, at Colonial Downs Parkway.
History
On September 1, 1997, the track was attended by more than 13,000 people on its opening day. The track used several unconventional construction and business approaches. Until 2005, the track was managed by the Maryland Jockey Club under a complicated agreement with Virginia and Maryland regulators and the Maryland-Virginia Racing Circuit. However, the track was purchased by Revolutionary Racing (a Chicago-based group of investors and gaming executives) for a price of over $20 million in 2018. Revolutionary Racing, alongside other investors, formed the Colonial Downs Group, which currently owns the track. Colonial Downs held its first race since 2013 on August 8, 2019.
It is located in New Kent County, Virginia, adjacent to Interstate 64, halfway between Richmond and Williamsburg.
Track Details

The Secretariat Turf Course is 1 1/8 miles around and is 180 feet wide, while the outer dirt oval is 1 1/4 miles long and is second in length only to Belmont Park’s, which is 1 1/2 miles around.
