In the case of stakes races, the answer is New York. The Travers Stakes, held every year in Saratoga Springs, NY, is the oldest stakes race in the country. It has been run annually since 1864. What amazes me most about this fact is that the Civil War was still raging when those horses were being trained and the race was being planned.
