Santa Anita will remain open as planned for live racing this Sunday, Jan. 15, highlighted by the redrawn GIII La Canada S., which was transferred from Saturday.

Daily Racing Form reported that no turf races will be run Sunday, nor were there races carded for the turf on Monday, resulting in a shortage of entries for the remaining dirt races.

According to tweets from the National Weather Service Los Angeles account, the total expected rainfall Friday night into Saturday in nearby Pasadena was predicted at 1.42″, with slightly less amounts farther to the south in the downtown area. An additional one-half to one inch of precipitation was forecast for the second weather system Sunday into Tuesday, with wind gusts of up to 45 mph.

With sunnier skies predicted for next week, Santa Anita plans to run Saturday and Sunday in addition to the make-up card on Friday.

The Maryland track was closed for 18 days in late autumn over safety and weather-related concerns despite the installation of a new multi-million surface. No live racing had been held since Jan. 2 prior to Sunday. A 30-minute video conference was held with members of the Maryland racing community and track executives Jan. 11 to discuss the timeline for a return to racing. Trainers were largely in favor of a sooner-than-later approach, even with the knowledge of the approaching weather system, as opposed to a more conservative plan that would have seen racing delayed to Thursday, Jan. 20.

Racing is scheduled to resume Thursday at Laurel.
