Gulfstream Park conveniently located off of Federal Highway in Hallandale. I remember when this new complex was built over 10 years ago. It was great to come here for all the different restaurants. Unfortunately over the years many of the original restaurants have come and gone. Gulfstream Park, Delray Beach: Address, Phone Number, Gulfstream Park Reviews: 4.5/5. Just a more laid-back location, away from the crowd of Atlantic Avenue.

Gulfstream Park History

Located in Hallandale Beach, Florida, Gulfstream Park has been a premier Thoroughbred racetrack since 1939. Today, the track is more than just a racetrack, it includes a casino as well as a shopping mall and dining options.

Gulfstream Park conducted its first four-day race meet in front of a crowd of 18,000. The track closed and was reopened in 1944 by James Donn, Sr. for a 20 day meet in December. The first Gulfstream Park Handicap was ran in 1946 and the Florida Derby began in 1952. With the popularity of racing in Florida growing, the park expanded the grandstand and built a clubhouse. With the renovations complete, the Florida Derby was ran the next year with a purse of $100,000, the highest stakes horse racing purse at the time.

In 1959, Gulfstream opened their turf course. Two years later, James Donn Jr. became the president of Gulfstream and erected the world’s largest tote board.

A big break for the park occurred in 1972, when they were awarded “middle dates” and allowed to expand their racing meets to 40 days, from January through April.

In 1982, the Grandstand was renovated again with new architecture and in 1984 the clubhouse renovations were completed. In 1986, the track was renovated into include the new Gulfdome, a domed dining area.

In 1989, Gulfstream was selected to host the Breeders’ Cup for the first time. That year the Breeders’ Cup Classic featured Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Sunday Silence against the Belmont winner Easy Goer. Sunday Silence, ridden by Chris McCarron, would persevere to win the then $3 million race. The track hosted the Breeders’ Cup again in 1992 and 1999.

In 1990, Gulfstream was purchased by Bertram R. Firestone. In 1994, a half interest was sold to Nigashi Nihon. In 1999, the track was purchased by Magna Entertainment Corporation for $95 million. In 2010, ownership was taken over by Magna’s parent group, MI Developments, Inc. The next year, The Stronach Group took over.

In 2002, the track hosted the Sunshine Millions. This day of racing would pit Florida-breds against California-breds for purse money over $3.6 million. The Sunshine Millions is now hosted only at Gulfstream Park and features the Sunshine Millions Classic and Turf stakes for Florid-breds.

Also in 2002, Gulfstream opened its Thoroughbred training facility, Palm Meadows in Palm Beach County.

In 2006, the track renovated yet again, this time turning itself into a racino. This renovation was highly controversial as fans felt that it ruined the track’s atmosphere.

In 2017, Gulfstream introduce the Pegasus World Cup. The Grade 1 rating was assumed from the Donn Handicap and is ran at 1 1/8th miles over the dirt. The race is open to four-year olds and up. Its inaugural running offered a $12 million purse, making it the richest horse race in the world, surpassing the Dubai World Cup. In 2018, the purse was raised to $18 million, but was reduced to $9 million in 2019. However, with the reduction in purse came the new Pegasus World Cup Turf race with a $7 million purse.

The 2017 winner of the Pegasus World Cup was Arrogate, trained by Bob Baffert and ridden by Mike E. Smith. In 2018, Gun Runner was the winner under Florent Geroux and trained by Steven M. Asmussen.
