RP 13.23%
FG 10.09%
HAW 9.72%
TP 7.62%
SH 7.40%
CD 6.35%
DD 5.90%

That looks like Oaklawn to me.

Yes, Edoardo, Calder is the Gulfstream "twin." They are both in Florida. But Gulfstream gets horses from all over the northeast and midwest- even Canada-because of the movement of horses from the states that have bad winters. Many New York and Kentucky based horses go to Florida for the winter.

For GP:

PRV TRACK

CRC 56.77%
TAM 7.06%
CD 6.61%
AQU 4.77%
MED 3.43%
AQI 3.18%
WO 2.35%
TP 2.23%
PIM 1.53%

These are dirt races only; AQU is main and AQI is inner

Gulfstream's "twin" racetrack is Calder, which is on the same circuit. When Hialeah was running, that was also on that circuit. Most of the horses for their lower-priced claiming races come from Calder. Horses for their higher-priced claimers, allowances, stakes, etc. come from all over, mainly from up north where the weather is colder (Aqueduct/Bemont, Monmouth/Meadowlands, Pimlico/Laurel). A lot of three-year olds make their debuts at Gulfstream.

Oaklawn has no sister track, as it's not on any circuit. A lot of horses there come from tracks that are closed during the time Oaklawn is open: Chicago (Hawthorne, Arlington) and Remington come to mind. Horses also cross over from nearby areas: Texas (Houston/Lone Star/Retama), Louisiana (LaD currently, FG when it was open), and Kentucky (Turfway/Churchill), to name a few.

If oaklawn has a sister track, its Louisiana Downs. They end their meet in November. Oaklawn starts in January. Thats where many of the steeds come from.
