Horse Racing: Santa Anita's opening day (Dec. 26) card has been drawn; California racing to consolidate this winter at Santa Anita

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Brittany! $100,000 stakes winner.

Race 4 in the books.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$24.8 million bet so far in Maryland.

 

[GKJ]

$6800 early pick 3 at Gulfstream

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$31 million bet at Pimlico.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$6800 early pick 3 at Gulfstream

The winning trainer at Gulf with the 30-to-1 shot, began training in 1951 and won his first race at Narragansett in Rhode Island back then. He is approaching 90 years old. His dad was the trainer of Secretariat.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$5 million bet in race 10. Thriller in the stretch.

 

[GKJ]

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Corrected: $62 million bet at Pimlico. I believe $99 million is the record.

 

[GKJ]

Ray Lewis really knows how go out there and be Ray Lewis

 

[GKJ]

I need to get in this fractional ownership game

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Frankie Dettori and Phil D'Amato with a California horse looked brilliant. Great call by Dave Rodman, the track announcer at Pimlico. Frankie is ecstatic.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$81 million bet at Pimlico.

 

[GKJ]

I’m intrigued by the 7 horse, but the top Derby finishers still seem like the best horses here, and I like Mystik Dan’s chances of improving off the Derby.

 

[GKJ]

Track is downgraded to muddy. First time in 85 years.

 

[GKJ]

Wayne Lukas in 2024 lmao

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Neato. Exacta and tri hit. 3-5-6-9 boxed.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Seize the Grey is 3 2-0-1 on off tracks

 

[GKJ]

Only one other runner really respected the Seize the Gold staying on the lead, and with good reason, unfortunately Imagination absolutely hated the track, which was predictable. Dettori had a miserable time getting him to relax. I never liked that horse in this spot being a Cali horse running on mud, especially if he wasn’t going to get the lead. Even if he settled in, didn’t feel good about him getting mud in his face.

Mystik Dan, just couldn’t get there. No one thought the winner would have enough horse. Hernandez probably wishes he moved earlier.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

$97 million bet heading into the finale.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Looks like the all-time record of $99 million is intact as $98.8 million was wagered today at Pimlico.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Harrah's is about to open what appears to be a boutique racetrack in Nebraska. Scheduled for this year.

Stronach is involved in something similar in Wyoming though only in the planning stages.

Penn National looking into Texas and a potential track there.

The sport's future may be tied into casinos and sports betting and even boutique meets signal a step forward.

The elephant in the room is Nevada. No signs of interest there but maybe if California continues to struggle there will be some sort of input from an unnamed party.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Wayne Lukas in 2024 lmao

And the youngest rider in the race.
