In this week s edition of Rewind Robert Smith takes readers back to the Golden Age of harness racing at the two major Raceways in Montreal. The weekly action, the intensity of competition and the level of talent both human and equine was virtually without parallel. He recalls some special happenings from way back when, and hopes this rekindles memories for those who remember and also shows what a great racing mecca both Blue Bonnets and Richelieu Park once were.
This week s piece takes the form of three separate short stories from the circa 1960 era along with a few old photos that accompany each one. These recaps help to illustrate the high level of racing that was being conducted in Montreal at this time and for many years following.
