Gulfstream Park, Hallandale Beach, Florida

Gulfstream's Mediterranean-style clubhouse, with its twin towers, on Sunshine Millions day in 2006. The track between Miami and Fort Lauderdale is where much of American racing spends its winter: the Florida Derby, first run in 1952, is one of the most telling Kentucky Derby preps. In January it stages the Pegasus World Cup, which offered $12 million at its first running in 2017, when Arrogate won and it was the richest race in the world.
