Gulfstream Park will host a Horse Racing League race day on March 13, 2027, with live coverage on USA Network under a new partnership between USA Sports and the league. The Florida track is one of three venues selected for HRL’s inaugural season, according to BloodHorse.com.
The agreement covers all three race days, each featuring multiple dirt and turf races. It places Gulfstream Park’s event on the league’s national television schedule alongside events at Keeneland and Santa Anita Park.
HRL says its format is designed to bring season-long continuity to thoroughbred racing through celebrity- and brand-led teams, a draft selection process and championship rivalries. The league says it will offer $10 million in prizes.
“We’re excited to partner with HRL to present its inaugural season to viewers nationwide live on USA Network,” said Celia Kohl, senior vice president of strategy and business development for Versant and USA Sports.
HRL Executive Chairman Greg Maffei said the partnership supports the league’s efforts to broaden fan interest and attract a younger audience to horse racing.
The league also recently named Renee Wilm chief business officer, J-T Ladt chief marketing officer and Clifford Lidell chief brand officer. Elevate will serve as its exclusive partner for ticketing, hospitality and sponsorship sales.
After the Gulfstream Park event, the inaugural schedule continues at Keeneland in Lexington, Kentucky, on April 18 and Santa Anita Park in Los Angeles on May 15.
