With two of the nation's most popular race meets in full swing, Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif., is open for simulcast wagering from Del Mar, Saratoga and other tracks across North America on a Wednesday through Sunday basis with free parking and admission offered in most available areas.
On Wednesdays, Santa Anita's Grandstand Paddock Room is open at 10 a.m. and from Thursday through Sunday, the track's popular FrontRunner Restaurant is open beginning at 11 a.m. with a $5 admission charge. (On Friday's FrontRunner opens at 1 p.m. as first post time at Del Mar is at 4 p.m.).
The FrontRunner, which is glass-enclosed and affords attendees a panoramic view of the San Gabriel Mountains in air conditioned comfort, offers a lunch and dinner menu along with complete cocktail service throughout the afternoon.
Along with its FrontRunner Restaurant, Santa Anita's Sirona's Sports Bar, located on the Grandstand main floor, provides ample pari-mutuel windows from main line one through main line three, beginning at 9:45 a.m. Thursdays through Sundays.
With the exception of the FrontRunner, admission is free to all other areas, including night simulcast wagering in the Paddock Room.
With several non-racing events currently in progress in the South Parking Lot, fans are encouraged to enter Santa Anita via Gate 5, on the northeast end of the track at the confluence of Huntington Drive and Colorado Place. Fans can then enter the facility on foot through the East Gate, which is located in close proximity to both reserved and general parking.
In accordance with LA County Health Department guidelines, fans are asked to wear face coverings in indoor settings.
Live racing returns to The Great Race Place on Friday, Oct. 1. For additional information regarding simulcasting and live racing, please visit santaanita.com or call (626) 574-RACE.
