Santa Anita To ‘Seed’ Sunday’s Late Pick 5 With $50,000

Sunday's 50 cent Late Pick 5 at Santa Anita, which will be comprised of races six through 10, will get a substantial boost, as track management announced it will “seed” the pool with $50,000.

A press release from Santa Anita said the track is making the move as a way of thanking horseplayers and horsemen for their “tremendous support” opening week in the face of adverse weather conditions.

On the Dec. 26 opening day card, six races – including three graded stakes – were taken off the turf after the the track was hit with heavy rains over several days. Rain struck again midway through the Dec. 27 card, leading management to make a late decision to move two races from turf to dirt. The Dec. 30 card was scrapped in advance as another storm moved into Southern California.

With the infusion of the $50,000 into the late Pick 5 pool, management is hoping it will help stimulate incremental handle and benefit owners by driving additional funds to the Winter/Spring purse account.

Post time for the first leg of Sunday's Late Pick 5, the sixth race, is 2:35 p.m. Pacific.
