Frommer plans Bruce's Field layout for steeplechase site
Frommer outlines the Bruce's Field plan with 25 foot row spacing for cars, access for emergency services, portable toilets, and parking for Guarantor Tent patrons. He hopes to have concrete details by August and praises Horse Park Foundation for cooperation. Albert Bostwick remains optimistic but lists fallback options if events move. The ASA Fall 2015 and Spring 2016 meets could stay at Bruce's Field, depending on attendance and revenue reviews.
