Santa Anita has the numbers left to right
Hollywood has the numbers North to South
Del Mar is keeneland-esqe i think

Not sure on that. They are sharing some equipment at least:

Hollywood Park President Rick Baedeker said an LED display board has been purchased that will move from meet to meet.

Edit - Just found this but it is blocked at work so I can't get to it. Looks like the LED display board is the tote board.

Interesting, maybe it is the big screen or something, I don't know. It is a joke out there. You have tracks like Tampa Bay that continue their success but tracks like Gulfstream and Santa Anita that have no idea what is going on.

In No. Cal - There's been a reported 17 horses who either "broke down" were "vanned off" or "walked off" over a span of 13 days - In So. Cal, an entire weekend of racing at the great Santa Anita winter meet has been lossed.

It's just a shame Fairplex doesn't have a turf course I guess.

TID, GG reports they have had great results with the new Crapeta

Or info on the spill in the 7th yesterday......nasty nasty bounce of the jock.

Assuming the track is in good enough shape to run this Thursday, does anyone know if/how they'll reschedule the stakes races they lost last weekend?
I don't know how that's usually handled, or how it affects the condition book of the weeks ahead.

Now that would be tight turns.

It will be interesting to see how this thing shakes out. In a month the people in SoCal could be complaining about a drought again. So we never know...

But!

Just say they get one of these storms... say... I don't know... around the last weekend in October next year. They better get the sh*t figured out quick, because the Breeders Cup is less than a year away. I wonder if the Breeeders Cup people are watching closely, and thinking of contingencies...

I live in Southern CA and it rarely rains in October. Even if it does rain, it won't be much. It will be a negligible amount. I predict whatever track they have installed will be fine during that time period.

"Northern California received far more rain than the south, yet the Tapeta track there is still getting excellent comments from horsemen and fans."
