Summer nights at sportsmans could and will never be duplicated by any current or previous harness track only something that could be explained if you were there best summer meet in history of harness racing 97 supernite saddest day in my harness racing career knowing it was over!!!!! Looking back on it even though balmoral of 2000 had highest handle in supernite history closing the doors on harness racing there illinois racing was never going to be the same mike paradise actually went to meet up with gill levine in california a few years ago and wrote a story about start to finish supernite 97 of how it went and its just a build up that was so great to the let down it was last one ever at the best facility in harness racing!!!!!! And sportsmans was at its best as a 5/8ths not 7/8ths!!!!!!!!
