The king is dead, long live the king. The Winter Capital of Harness Racing is no more. The #Senditin army has laid down it’s arms and raised the white flag 🏳.

Like the numerous jai-alai frontons and dog tracks, like Tropical Park and Hialeah and Calder before it, part of the once wildly popular Miami metro area gambling scene, Pompano Park has been put to rest.
