used to be a 9 foot rise...
from an unknown low spot in the track to wherever the equally unknown hi spot was. Yes they did do significant leveling of the track. I would suppose to promote consistent drainage. Also said they re shaped the club house turn so it was a consistent radius, rather than slightly egg shaped. Gee...wasn't the GOLDEN RAIL that existed there for years the BAIN of all horseplayers???
or was it the Highway to heaven???
