Horse Racing To Resume At Santa Anita
Santa Anita race track in Arcadia California will resume racing on Wednesday after a contract settlement with the HBPA ended a weeklong idling. The agreement raises purses to 43 percent of parimutuel income, leaving stake race purses unchanged. The dispute began January 15 with a demand for higher purses, leading to a boycott that canceled last Friday’s card and postponed the $100 000 Charles H Strub Stakes featuring Damascus Horse of the Year 1967.
