As famous for its beauty as its racing prominence, Keeneland was constructed in 1936 and is now a National Historic Landmark. Distinguished by its limestone buildings and mature trees, Keeneland helped to reinvigorate horse racing when it was faltering – clearly a successful effort. These days, visitors from around the world gather to watch horses train, catch them race during April and October, and bid for thoroughbreds at auction. A gift shop and restaurant are available onsite.   (© 10Best)

Watch the horses run in April and October, but you can visit any time of the year. Call for dates and times of races, sales, and other events. (from Southern Living)

User Reviews for Keeneland Race Course

We have been to Keeneland 4 times, only one of which was to a race. Our favorite is going to the early morning horse workouts (they end at 10). The race was neat as well but in the early morning on non-race days you can get close to the horses on the track as well as in the barn area. It is beautiful in the spring!
