Rt. 120 McHenry, 111. Ifs A Date In Sixty-Eight It looks as if owners of standard bred horsed and their drivers will have a banner year at the 1968 Illinois State Fair. An early estimate of the purses for the jseven days of harness races -- Aug. 9 and 10 and Aug. 12 through Aug. 16 -- is about $530,500. Four races, open to the world, have been added to attract more horse,s and drivers this year so that non-winners can pick up money. Two will be offered opening day in the Illiniwek Colt Stakes series, including the Pere Marquette for 2-yearold trptters sand the Dixon Springs for 2-year-old pacers. Both carry $2,500) added or an estimated value of $3,000. The other two are the Blackhawk for 3-year-old trotters and the Buffalo Rock for 3-year-old pacers. Both carry the same $2,500 added or an estimated $3,000 value. Estimated purses total $200* 000 for the Monday, Aug. 12, races, the Illinois Fair Glolt Stakes for 2 and 3-year-old trotters and pacers. Each of the four stakes carries an estimated $50,0Q0 purse. Illinois and nationally known harness horsemen have been more than pleased with the crowds attending the races at the State Fair the last two years. Horsemen say they were told "no one is interested in a horse race unless there is betting." But in the last two years State Fair advocates of harness racing have "pointed with pride" to the daily paid attendance near the 5,000 mark. With officials, owners and drivers and their families, the daily number watching the races is well over 5,000. In 1966, daily average was 4,924 and in 1967 it was 4,391. Veteran fair employees say that in earlier years sometimes no - more than 1,500 or 2,000 were in the stands for a harness race program. Daily attendance at State Fair races is probably higher than at any non-betting race track. All agree such big purse stakes as the Little Brown Jug and the Hambletonian draw & large crowds. But a daily check at a "bettless" track on a regular race day shows the crowds much smaller than the daily average at the Illinois State Fair. The record daily crowd in recent years exceeded 8,000.
