The Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint Stakes is a Grade III American Thoroughbred horse race for horses four-year-olds and older at the distance of five furlongs on the turf held annually in February at Gulfstream Park, Hallandale Beach, Florida. The event currently carries a purse of $100,000.

History[]

The event was inaugurated 23 January 2011 and was won by the eight-year-old former claimer Stradivinsky who was the 11/10 favorite in a 5 horse field in a time of 56.69.[1]

In 2020 the event was renamed to the World of Trouble Turf Sprint Stakes after the sprinter World of Trouble who won the race the previous year.[2]

The event was upgraded to Grade III in 2021 and the name of the race was reverted to the Gulfstream Park Turf Sprint Stakes.[3]
