Default Photo gallery a look back at the AC Race Course

Going to miss the old place. One of my first tracks and spent many a summer night outside in the clubhouse. The best was the summer double headers going from Monmouth to ACRC with my good friend.

At one time AC was recognized a having one of the top turf courses and I saw many a UN Handicap and Matchmaker, including two of my favorite race horses Manila and Spruce Fir.

I believe that is Steinlen winning the 1990 Caesars International.

Fantastic pictures. Brought back some great memories. Especially of the sign out front. Back in the day that sign was stunning with all the plants and flowers.
