Gulfstream Park has cancelled live racing Thursday, Sept. 7 through Sunday, Sept. 10 in reaction to the unexpected path of Hurricane Irma, which could potentially make landfall in South Florida. The track will remain open Thursday and Friday for simulcast wagering. Racing is tentatively scheduled to resume Wednesday, Sept. 13, which was a scheduled makeup day.
“Obviously, our first priority is the safety of our patrons and our equine athletes,” said P.J. Campo, General Manager of Gulfstream Park and Vice President of Racing for The Stronach Group. “Horsemen are being given the option to keep their horses at Gulfstream, Gulfstream Park West or move to our training facility at Palm Meadows in Palm Beach.”
