HALLANDALE, Fla. — The owner of Calder Race Course and a Japanese company have filed an application with state racing officials for a permit to buy Gulfstream Park, representatives said Tuesday.
Bertram R. Firestone, 57, and Victoria Co. Ltd., a Japanese sporting-goods company, have asked the state Department of Business Regulation’s Division of Pari-Mutuel Wagering for the permit required of all track owners.
Joe Sole, DBR general counsel, said he believes this is the first case of a foreign investor and a Florida race track.
