History of Santa Anita Race Track

The establishment of Santa Anita Race Track is closely tied to Elias Jackson "Lucky" Baldwin, who established the largest horse racing stables in the United States. Lucky Baldwin's daughter Anita along with Hollywood tycoons and sports figures helped create the Los Angeles Turf Club, which developed Santa Anita Race Track in Arcadia in 1933 to 1934. Santa Anita Race Track opened to the public Christmas Day, 1934.

Santa Anita Race Track - Glamor And Grandeur At The RacesIn the Hollywood's Golden Age, regular track attendees included such luminaries as Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable, Cary Grant and Bing Crosby. Santa Anita Race Track has also provided a sweeping setting for famous horse competitions and such golden-era films as "The Story of Seabiscuit". During World War II, it served as an assembly center for Japanese Americans being relocated to internment camps. In 1984, it served as the site of the Olympics equestrian competitions.
