According to a Related press reports, 1/ST Racing, which owns Gulf Park and Santa Anita, plans to bring the Pegasus format to California by 2024.

“I really want to see that we bring it in West Bank,” 1/ST President and CEO Belinda Stronach told AP. “That will probably happen in 2024. What we did this year for 2023 was say, ‘Okay, we have some great race days, let’s coordinate those dates better and call it the 1/ST Racing Tour and recognize our own great achievements in our own footprint.’”

The telegraph service plans to have two Pegasus days in 2024, one at Gulfstream and one at Santa Anita, with each program consisting of grass and land races. It is not yet clear which two race days will fit into the calendar and what races will be held at each track. Stronach has made it clear that the 2024 schedule will include the Pegasus races at Gulfstream, the only home ground the events have known since it began in 2017.

“This is here in Miami,” Stronach said. “Pegasus has a house in Miami. We can’t move Pegasus from Miami. We have great partners here and more than a day to go. We have deep roots in Miami.”

California Pegasus will join the 1/ST Racing Tour, a package that includes the biggest days and races at the 1/ST track, including the GI Preakness S. at Pimlico. The tour also includes GI Florida Derby and GI Santa Anita Derby activities.

“We can never rest on our laurels,” says Stronach. “We have to keep moving forward. We have a great team that is really committed.”
