Although horse racing started in the seventeenth century, high-level horse racing didn’t come to Illinois until 1909. The history of horse racing in Illinois was largely due to families in the horse racing industry. Included is some of the glorious history of famous tracks: Hawthorne, Arlington, and Sportsman’s Park.

  • 1,000 to 1!
    Malcolm Barr Sr.
    '1,000 to 1' is an anecdotal story about the varied people--from a cabinet officer to a bell captain--who have owned inexpensive horses with the Hampshire partnerships, the people who have trained and cared for the horses, and the horses themselves.
