Description of Balmoral Park: balmoralpark.com - Harness Horse Racing.
It was 1925 when Col. Matt J. Winn, manager of Churchill Downs, came to Chicago to look over the Illinois Horse Racing situation. Winn returned to Kentucky where he talked to business associates at the Kentucky Jockey Club. They agreed to buy 1,050 acres just south of Crete and built the new track named "Lincoln Fields". The large oval was surrounded by Kentucky bluegrass which Winn imported from Kentucky. Red Spanish tile was used as roofs on the buildings. Spring-fed lakes were built in the infield.
