Gulfstream Park will have live racing this Monday Feb. 18 with its annual Presidents Day card.
Gulfstream will have twelve Monday races with first post of 12:00 p.m.
Ten of the races are starter stakes, all with $60,000 purses. All of the stakes races are restricted to horses that at least once in their career have raced at or below a designated claiming price.
All of the stakes races have names that are nicknames of or are otherwise connected to U.S. presidents and first ladies or to British royalty.
For example the tenth and feature race is the Old Hickory. That was the nickname of Andrew Jackson, who was elected president in 1828 and in 1836.
