I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise

I'm not sure what to do with this. I agree that this last sentence is a little awkward, but I don't think it needs to be explicit that it's the Grand Circuit; that's mentioned in the immediately preceding sentence, so saying "grand" again would feel repetitive. I'm certainly open to suggestions on

My understanding is that the "Fleetwood Park Club" was a private club owned by Bonner, located next to the racetrack. He did not own the racetrack, but was a member (and at one time the president) of the Driving Club. I'll try to clarify this, but none of the sources I've found are explicit on

There are a lot of short paragraphs - which gives a very choppy feel to the article. Can we combine some of them? Like the second and third paragraphs of The Club could be combined easily, I'd think, as an example. Likewise the second and third paragraphs of Physical
614:"The alternative locations in New York were Inwood, Oak Point-Barretto Point, Port Morris, Cedar Park, and Morningside Park-Riverside Park-Bloomingdale Asylum." doesn't add anything to the knowledge of the racetrack, suggest cutting this. 682: 658:
The last two paragraphs are pure trivia and should be deleted. Neither the death of a local resident nor a small lawsuit over purely local concerns is really noteworthy and should just go.

mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.

This got resolved by rearranging things; at the point where I now say "Members of the club", there's only one club that's been mentioned, so it's unambigious.
52: 107: 70: 445: 542:"had his stables and Fleetwood Park Club nearby" did Bonner own the racetrack or is this "Fleetwood Park Club" something different than the racetrack? 99: 239: 231: 288: 223: 463: 181: 459: 274: 227: 384: 187: 75: 302: 156: 115: 17: 219: 92: 264: 363: 349: 320: 316: 744: 731: 717: 696: 170: 150: 726:
Those changes look good, I can deal with the "circuit" issue staying as is. Passing this now!

I copyedited some, please make sure I didn't inadvertently change meaning while doing so.

Thanks for the review. Every one of your suggestions was spot-on and appreciated. --

OK, I think I've addressed all of your items. Please take another look. --
