Goshen to Monti
Goshen to Yonkers
Goshen to Meadowlands
Goshen to Roosevelt(couldnt make the first at RR but I did it)
I have done every NY/NJ/eastern PA and Delaware region doubleheader there is. Including Syracuse fair to Vernon Downs and Finger Lakes to Vernon.
All Southern Florida doubleheaders--Tbreds to harness/dogs and Jai Alai
DM/HP/SA to Los Al
Arlington to both Maywood and Balmoral
Keeneland to Red Mile
Toronto doubleheaders including Woodbine,Greenwood, Mohawk, Orangeville and Flamboro when possible.
International DH of Ft. Erie to Batavia

Sydney Australia - Canterberry to whatever harness track there was in Sydney(cant remember name as it may be gone)

True. I found this T-Bred track map of the USA . It has many tracks, not all.
http://www.tmeter.com/racetrackmap.html
I also found this link which lists all kinds of tracks in the world but not as neatly layed out as the above link showing the location on the map; arabian, harness, t-bred, q-horse. Click on USA and each state can be selected.

Very impressive! My first field assignment as a NY State Pari-Mutuel Auditor was to Goshen for the last pari-mutuel meet held there in 1978. Just one week of racing (July 4th week), and we lost the first day due to heavy rains.
All I remember about the place is the extremely antiquated (even for 1978) tote setup.

The way I remember Goshen was the windows closed for betting action when the Mutuel manager blew a whistle and then all clerks stopped punching tickets. Sometimes the whistle didn't blow until the horses were in the mid backstretch, It was great with all of the people calling down from the back of the small grandstand which horse was going to the lead. 6/5 went to 2/5 quite often.
