Hallandale official: Gulfstream Park won’t shut down, threatens legal action

Gulfstream Park closed its restaurants and casino and banned spectators voluntarily before the county order went into effect Monday morning, Javellana said. The county order describes essential businesses as grocery stores, doctor’s offices, gas stations, pharmacies and several other types of businesses. But the park is planning to continue horse races despite the city asking them to postpone the races due to the coronavirus pandemic. There was no scheduled racing at the park Monday or Tuesday, and post time was listed on their website as 1 p.m. on Wednesday.
