Harness Racing / Re: FIRE BURNS DOWN MY FAVORITE RACE TRACK BALMORAL UP IN SMOKE
« Last post by Meadow Ford on Today at 02:04:24 PM »Great great memories. First yearling sale early 70's I went to there was held in the indoor jogging track.
It was small run down, the roof in places was coming down, and I think only the flats used it. Soon after it was torn down.
No lights on the mile track.
We raced harness on a half mile track.
Then they made it a 5/8s.
On Sundays afternoons we would race on the mile track till it started to get dark then switch to the 5/8s.
Then they finally put lights on the mile track.
