Now owned by Magic City Casino, the property boasts an impressive array of table games, slot machines, and concert venues. MagicCityCasino, Event Coordinator at Magic City Casino, responded to this review Responded June 29, 2016 josephine1996, Our property has been home to The Flagler Dog Track for over 80 years. Our racing season is from June to October, so you were in town at the right moment! Very tough to get to,this is the old Flager Dog track which added a casino.The are trying hard,constant promotions,live concerts with famous musicians,food truck rallys and similar things to bring in the customers.If you like the races,they have daily simulcasting and live dog racing will resume again shortly.The facility could use a facelift,but I do like some of the memories of yesteryear. The death of dog racing would be the end of 'a beautiful show,' said Duke Adkinson, a longtime fan who came to Flagler — now part of Magic City Casino — with his preteen grandson Dillon to instill.
This webpage focuses on the fascinating history of Magic City which started as West Flagler Kennel Club and later was referred to as Fabulous Flagler and Flagler as the city of Miami expanded further west. In the early days, West Flagler Kennel Club even had some Hurdle Races for greyhounds which packed the complex when a California couple came into town with their fascinating greyhound racing show which featured small trained monkey jockeys riding on the backs of greyhounds. The crowds were quite entertained by this and came by the thousands to watch these specialized races.

Flagler became known as a Racino (racetrack and casino) when Casino-style gambling was added to the entertainment options, and then in 2018 Flagler converted their greyhound racing license to a Jai-alai fronton within the Magic City Casino and began offering Jai-alai games using Jai-alai players mostly consisting of many former local college athletes including athletes from the University of Miami who were trained by professionals to play the game of Jai-alai. Magic City Jai-alai is an evolving short-court American Jai-alai program conceived by Scott Savin and has rapidly become a highly successful entertainment option at the Magic City Casino in Miami, Florida. A traditional American Jai-alai court is around 180-feet in length while the short-court at Magic City Jai-alai is 120-feet in length to fit an existing footprint at the Magic City Casino. The short-court version of Jai-alai is not new to amateurs and Jai-alai players as North Miami Amateur fronton has a short-court version at that facility. Thanks to Scott Savin for helping to save the sport of Jai-alai from fading away from the American landscape where Jai-alai frontons have been in existence for nearly 100 years. The interesting story behind this concept can be seen by watching the movie 'The Magic City Hustle.'
