Betting on already run races?

I think those races were from Tropical Park and not Hialeah.

You're probably right. I remember the palm trees and assumed it was Hialeah.
What was really cool on a personal note was seeing the one and only horse my father ever bid on as a yearling in one of the clips.

Yup, it was Tropical Park and it was the first synthetic track, I believe they called it "Tartan Turf". Used to watch it every week looking for my winning number. LOL

Up here in Greater Boston and Southern New Hampshire, the show that Grand Union sponsored was called "Let's Go to the Races".

That was int he days before "legal" OTB's and Wagering Accounts and Al Gore inventing the internet.
