The old Coney Island on the Ohio. Clang, Myrtlewood's great rival for Midwestern sprint honors, held the track record at 6f for years; Man o' War's champion son Crusader set the track record for 10f. Used to be a feeder track for the Old Latonia, the leading track in Kentucky until it died in the 1930s.
