History of Gulfstream Park
Gulfstream Park is a Thoroughbred racetrack located in Hallandale Beach, Florida, and is home to many prestigious horse races including the Florida Derby (G1), Pegasus World Cup (G1), Fountain of Youth Stakes (G2), and has hosted two Breeders' Cup World Championships.
Gulfstream Park opened on February 1, 1939, conducting a four-day meeting. Gulfstream Park is unique in that it has three courses, each course with a different racing surface. There is a 1+1⁄8-mile dirt track, with a backstretch chute that allows for a one-turn mile. There is also a synthetic Tapeta track that measures one mile and seventy yards, and there is a seven-furlong turf course.
In 1989, Gulfstream Park hosted its first Breeders' Cup World Championships. The event featured a Classic match-up between Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner Sunday Silence and Belmont Stakes winner Easy Goer. Gulfstream Park hosted the Breeders' Cup again in 1992.

GULFSTREAM PARK TRACK STATS
Throughout the Championship Meet at Gulfstream Park, Matthew DeSantis from NYRA Bets will provide updated weekly track trends.
What Are Track Trends?
Track trends provide two levels of data for bettors and handicappers. First, it analyzes how frequently favorites are winning different levels of races as well as looking at how favorites perform on different surfaces and distances. Second, they analyze how different running styles (leaders, trackers, closers) perform on different surfaces and distances to have the ideal winning trip.
Use the data below to help identify helpful trends for handicapping and betting through eight weeks of the Championship Meet at Gulfstream Park. Note that all races taken off the turf are disaggregated when looking at favorites and trip analysis. They are NOT included in the Tapeta or Turf totals but have their own category.
