I swear that looks like Delta Downs.. What track is it?

Gansett Park. I have no idea where tht was but most of his horses ran from MA down the east coast.

I think it was Narragansett (which I've probably misspelled) in New England (Massachusetts or Rhode Island?) But someone from that area can probably correct me.

Naragansett Park (affectionately known as 'Gansett) was in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, very close to the Mass. border. It closed in the late 70's.

Thank you very much for the vulable watch.
Looks like a quite elegant equine. Alas he was a gelding.

Yeah I was thinking that it was a shame he was gelded.
