HIGHEST-PRICED SALE IN OCALA SINCE 2013*. The Ocala Jockey Club, awarded the "Small Market Event of the Year" by the Florida Sports Foundation, has just sold, with plans to continue its equestrian tradition. In 2019, a three-day event qualifier for the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games was held at the facility, the only venue in the southeastern United States to serve as a qualifier for this Olympic sport. The gated entrance to this 922-acre property is just 1.3 miles from a major interstate highway interchange and only 17 miles to the World Equestrian Center. With rolling hills, spring-fed ponds and a gracious countryside, this is the perfect environment for training. Champions have been raised and conditioned here, and the tradition will live on.
