Belmont can not hold winter racing as it's facility has NO HEAT. They said in a study a few years back that it would be exorbitant to heat the facility and enclose major portions of the grandstand.

It's racing surface is not suitable for winter racing.

AQU USED to have 2 turf courses, just like SAR and BEL. But they ripped out the outer turf course and made it a winter inner track.
