Beginning this Friday, there are seven racing days remaining at the Santa Anita spring meeting. The track will race from Friday through Sunday this weekend and will have a four-day racing week from June 12-15 that includes a rare Thursday program.
There are five stakes remaining at the meeting, including three Grade 3 races worth $100,000: Saturday’s Summertime Oaks for 3-year-old fillies, the Daytona Stakes at about 6 1/2 furlongs on the hillside turf course on June 14, and the San Juan Capistrano Stakes at about 1 3/4 miles on turf on June 15.
Motorious, second in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint at Del Mar last November, is a candidate for the Daytona Stakes, trainer Phil D’Amato said last weekend. Motorious has not raced since a win in the Grade 2 Joe Hernandez Stakes on the hillside turf course on Dec. 28.
The Los Alamitos summer meeting begins on June 20 and continues through July 6. The Del Mar summer meeting begins on July 18.
