Queens County Handicap

Queens County Handicap

The Queens County Handicap is an American Grade III race for Thoroughbred race horses run each December on the dirt at Aqueduct Racetrack in Queens, New York.

Open to horses three years-old and up, it is set at a distance of one and one three-sixteenth of a mile and offers a purse of $100,000 added.

One of America's oldest races still running, the Queens County has been set at various lengths over the years. It took place at Belmont Park in 1946 and at the old Jamaica Racetrack in Jamaica, Queens, New York from 1956 to 1958.

The Queens County is, like many races at Aqueduct, named for a New York City borough. Queens is the borough that includes the Aqueduct race track. It is also the largest of New York's five boroughs.

The Queens County will be in its 103nd running in 2008.
