1997
Grand Prairie, Texas

Texas voters restored pari-mutuel wagering in 1987, and Grand Prairie taxed itself to build a track on Belt Line Road that opened in April 1997. It runs a spring thoroughbred meet and a fall season, and it hosted the Breeders' Cup in 2004. The area had gone without a major track since Arlington Downs shut down in the 1930s.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
