Santa Anita Park
Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California opened in 1934 and is the oldest and most prestigious horse racetrack in Southern California. Founded by the Los Angeles Turf Club, its success was built on the Santa Anita Handicap, whose $100,000 purse made it the richest race in America. The race is still held there, and is presently a Grade 1 listed race, with a prize of over $1 million. The track is the site of the Santa Anita Derby, run for three-year-olds each April as an important prep to the Kentucky Derby.
