CAYMANAS Park is set to undergo major refurbishing works within months after operators of the horse-racing facility, Supreme Ventures Racing and Entertainment Limited (SVREL), this week started a process of approval through government-owned Caymanas Track Limited (CTL) from whom the 196-acre property was acquired on a 30-year lease in 1997.

Among the proposed works, estimated at $70 million, is rehabilitation of the property’s older well, resurfacing of the racetrack and restoration of the equine pool.

Solomon Sharpe, chairman, SVREL, who accompanied CTL’s chief executive officer, Errol Robinson, on a tour of the property, explained  that  its ongoing upgrades at the  racetrack are intended to address “operational and  infrastructure concerns in a sustainable manner and to help ensure the long-term  strength and resilience of Caymanas Park”.
