The Horse Racing Women's Summit (HRWS) will return to Santa Anita Park from Sept. 27-29 in a homecoming of sorts, one year after the inaugural event was held at the same location.

“We are thrilled to be back at Santa Anita Park for the second Horse Racing Women's Summit at the beginning of the Autumn meet, which will also feature the 2023 Breeders' Cup World Championships,” said HRWS Chair Stephanie Hronis. “In the past year, we have hosted events at Keeneland Race Course, the Global Symposium on Racing, Gulfstream Park, and upcoming at Saratoga Race Course [Aug. 3]. Our community has grown significantly and we have big plans for when we get together again in September.”
