ClarificationThe buyer of Turf Paradise is going to be Richard Moore and the Turf Paradise Land Trust. Frank Nickens is the visionary. Mr. Moore’s purchase of the track will save over 5,000 jobs.
Turf Paradise, located at 19th Ave and Bell Road, first opened its doors in 1956. It has maintained Arizona’s horse racing tradition for more than six decades and is Arizona’s FIRST sports franchise. HorsemenThe reason the AZHBPA extended the simulcast contract until November 12, was because there’s a buyer for Turf Paradise.
“There were a number of buyers that wanted to buy the track, perhaps at a higher price,” said Jerry Simms. ”But I decided on this gentleman because he’s going to run racing. I wanted to keep live racing alive in Arizona.” Horsemen Extend Simulcasting
