With 21 racehorses dying at the track since December 26, Santa Anita Park is suspending racing, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The announcement came hours after the death of 4-year-old filly Let's Light the Way, the newspaper reported. She injured her right front leg while training and was euthanized Tuesday."In whole, we feel confident in the track and we're just being very proactive," Tim Ritvo, chief operating officer of the Stronach Group, which owns and operates the Arcadia, California, facility, told the Los Angeles Times."We want to do all the testing that needs to be done.
A test last week found no issues, the LA Times reported.The park said in a news release that it has hired a consultant to examine the condition of the track"as a precautionary measure." "Human and equine safety are of paramount importance" to the consultant, Dennis Moore, the release says. He was the Santa Anita Track Superintendent until the end of 2018 and now works as Track Superintendent at both Del Mar and Los Alamitos, according to the release.
