Valentines Day at Racetrack
Racetrack fans can have their cake and eat it, too, at Santa Anita Racetrack (santaanita.com) where “Valentine’s Day at the Races” package for two includes a gourmet three-course meal from Turf Terrace, a long-stemmed rose, glass of Veuve Clicquot Champagne, valet parking and Club House admission for $120. If you are really cheap, wait to bring your lover two days later on Feb. 16, 2015, for $1 hot dogs, beers and sodas. General admission is $5 or $10 for Club House, so your date will end up costing around $20-30. This weekend hometown hero, California Chrome, is set to run in the $500,000 San Antonio Stakes (gr. II) Feb. 7 at Santa Anita Park. The race is expected to also draw champion Shared Belief and Clark Handicap (gr. I) winner Hoppertunity. Santa Anita Park hosts many special events throughout the year such as the popular 626 Night Market.
