Maybe the three "visitor" tracks don't count.  I was there on days there was no racing but I did go into the winners circle  ;D

I was only in the winners circle at Pompano Park, Monticello and Gulfstream Park when we owned T-Breds. Remarkably, 85% of my time in the winners circle were with friends whose horses won. Still exciting! LOL!
