The 2025 Keeneland Fall Meet in Lexington, Kentucky, is set to begin at 1 p.m. on Friday, marking the debut of several new amenities after 20 months of construction. Key improvements include repositioned horse stalls along the east side, a redesigned paddock with a larger fan viewing area, and a new Winner’s Circle for Stakes races that brings winning horses closer to fans. While a large new building featuring dining options and a rooftop bar is nearly complete, it will open in Spring 2026, enhancing the main entrance in the meantime.

The meet will feature 11 Stakes races in the first three days, including eight that offer automatic entry to the November Breeders’ Cup in California, which Keeneland will host again next year. Officials describe the Fall Stars Weekend as having the excitement and atmosphere of the Breeders’ Cup, promising an unparalleled viewing experience for fans.
