Extraordinarily easy to get to Aqueduct from downtown. You just get the Far Rockaway A Train ( there are two, the other goes to Lefferts, they split the stop before Aqueduct, so you don't want that one ) which comes about every fifteen minutes. There is actually a schedule, which I will post here, and it takes almost exactly 30 minutes from Fulton/Broadway Nassau. I suggest one of the back two cars, as you want to be closer to the exit near Aqueduct.
Here is the link to the schedule. Believe it or not, they pretty much stick to it, though I recommend getting there a couple of minutes earlier than scheduled. Worst case scenario, you wait less than 15 minutes regardless.
