About Fair Grounds
Fair Grounds Race Course is a Thoroughbred track in the Gentilly neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana, and one of the oldest racetracks in the United States, with racing on the site dating to 1872. It features a one-mile dirt oval with an inner turf course and runs a winter-to-early-spring meet that stretches from around Thanksgiving into late March. Its signature race is the Louisiana Derby, a Grade 2 Kentucky Derby prep with a lineage reaching back to the 19th century, supported by stepping-stone preps such as the Risen Star and Lecomte Stakes. Owned by Churchill Downs Incorporated, the track is a cornerstone of the early-season road to the Kentucky Derby. It operates as a racino, with slot machines complementing the racing calendar.
