Working on one turn vs two turn mile track figures.
Which tracks have a one turn 1 mile race?
Lame question that I could probably do some research on but I know someone will be able to answer this quickly.
Thanks.

Belmont, Aqueduct, Churchill, Arlington. I think that's it.

One-turn routes:
Aqueduct main track: 1 mile
Belmont main track: up to 1 1/8 mile
Belmont Widener turf: 1 mile & 1 1/16 mile start from angled chutes (two different ones) on the turn (sort of 1 & 1/3 to 1 1/2 turns)
Belmont inner turf: 1 1/16 mile angled chute
Arlington dirt: 1 mile
Churchill Downs dirt: 1 mile
Hollywood dirt: 7 1/2 furlongs (almost a route)

Colonial has a one-turn mile for harness, but do they use it for TB?
They run 1 mile on the dirt. I've never watched so I don't know about the turns.

Woodbine has a 1 1/8th mile chute on the turf course.

Forgot to mention Ky downs ...they got kind of a 1 turn mile. (They start right after the hairpin) Just an odd shaped course in general.
