Del Mar Seeks Oak Tree, BC

[Alan07]

The Oak Tree Racing Association wants to run a fall meeting at the Del Mar Racetrack in 2012, a move that could lead to the Breeders’ Cup coming to the seaside track within four to five years.

Craig Fravel, president and general manager of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club, said he met recently with officials from the Oak Tree Association. Fravel’s name also is being mentioned as a successor to Greg Avioli as the CEO of Breeders’ Cup Limited, which runs the event.
