NEW YORK'S HORSE RACING INDUSTRY

Horse racing is an economic engine for our state, creating tens of thousands of jobs and generating billions in revenue.
OUR IMPACT
New York’s horse racing industry provides jobs and supports families. Farmers, breeders, trainers, veterinarians, local small business owners, union workers, racetrack employees and more all contribute to New York Horse Racing. The impact of our industry is felt far beyond the 11 racetracks that exist in New York State.
