Spanish term or phrase: tastes
En un documento sobre carreras de caballos en México:

Entiendo que es algún sitio donde se realizan carreras o espectáculos con caballos. En Google existen numerosas páginas que mencionan todo tipo de "tastes" y los veo en YouTube, como pistas de carreras, pero no he podido encontrar una traducción convincente. Será un simple "racetrack"?

Explanation:
Or maybe two-horse racing venue. In any case I suggest you to include the original term "taste" with a short explanation of its regional (Mexico) use.

Examples:

He also operated a two-horse racetrack near Borger which he opened to the public on weekends in the late 1940's.

On paper, it looked like a two-horse race. Track conditions just made it the only possible scenario.
