I wish so too. It is truly a gem. Best track, best paddock, best winner's circle, traditionally safest track(most important), most beautiful gardening and infield and backside in SoCal IMO.
Background scenery goes to Santa Anita. Love Clocker's Corner too!
Del Mar ... Meh ... I've nothing good to say about it ...
What? NOTHING good to say about Del Mar?
I'll say three good things about it!
First, its racing in 70 degree temps with the sun shining.
Second, ten to twenty five thousand people routinely attend the races there, especially on weekends, unlike the three-four thousand people crowds that usually attend at HP and SA.
Third, the people that go to the races at Del Mar are primarily young, and are obviously having a great time. Unlike the primarily old, sad, down on their luck crowds we see at HP (especially) and at SA.
Come on, Tin Man. NOTHING good to say about Del Mar?
