One of the premiere Thoroughbred
training facilities in the country,
Palm Meadows–located less than a
half hour from the Eau Palm Beach–
provides horse owners and industry
professionals the opportunity to get
a first-hand look at their equine in-
vestments in addition to getting some
face time with their trainers. Owned
by The Stronach Group–the same op-
eration that runs Gulfstream–Palm
Meadows covers 304 acres, features
a 1 1/8-mile training track and serves
as the winter home to approximately
2000 horses housed in 40 permanent
barns. With training over by 10:30 a.m.
Friday through Tuesday (no turf works
Wednesday and Thursday), most will
no doubt be seriously contemplat-
ing breakfast by the time they hit the
front gate, and a stop at the tremen-
dously popular New York-style Jewish
deli Flakowitz of Boynton will help
round out the perfect morning.
