I would say Northfield or Hoosier.  I think Northfield can stable 900-1000.  Im not sure on Hoosier but they have quite a few barns.

Are you saying most of the horses at those track are stabled there and do not ship in?

Hawthorne has a gazillion stalls.
In the hay days of IL.harness racing they were all full.
Now they use maybe only a third.
I am just an old horse trainer still going around in circles. Sometimes Fast. Sometimes Half-Fast.

I would guess Northfield is about 50% stable on track. But they race a ton of races each year. Meadows is down to around 300. Haven’t been to Hoosier in 15 years but their barn area was always pretty much full
