Gulfstream Park on Saturday will open its 2018-2019 championship meet with eleven races and first post of 11:50 a.m.
Nine of the races are stakes in the national Claiming Crown, which Gulfstream has held each year since 2012.
All of the Claiming Crown stakes have purses of $100,000 or more and all are restricted to horses that have run at or below designated claiming prices at least once since Jan. 1, 2017.
We will have a preview on Saturday morning.
