Most US major tracks are 1 mile. The smaller (like fair) tracks are called "bull rings" are 5/8 of a mile.

Typical US racetracks are one mile, on a loop, although races run on the tracks can be shorter or longer. I don't know about other countries, and I'm not sure if this holds true for steeplechases.
