Fall Racing Returns to Santa Anita, and Los Angeles Takes Its Seat

Southern California's racing calendar turns a page this week, as the Fall Meet resumes at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia. The track, long known to horsemen as the Great Race Place, returns to its familiar spot at the center of the West Coast season. For Los Angeles racegoers, the reopening of live racing at Santa Anita is one of the surer signs that autumn has arrived.
