Early in the 1900s, Seiling built its first half-mile oval at the northeast edge of town, and the races grew bigger and better. A grandstand was added, and people from coast to coast were talking about "Little Louisville." Races were held twice a year, in May and September, and dog racing was later introduced. Little Louieville became an example for other towns in Oklahoma. The Seiling Race Meet Association was incorporated in 1935. It had several firsts in Oklahoma racing circles, including the first stationary starting chutes, followed by the McMillan Electric Starting Gate, and later the mechanical closed starting gate. Special races for two- and three-year-olds, with a beautiful blanket and purse for the winner, were adopted by other tracks after Seiling introduced them. At one time there were 33 race meets in Oklahoma, causing attendance to drop in every town, and after losing money the previous two years, Seiling decided to stop in 1952.
