Eaton Canyon Fire

SANTA ANITA PARK WILL BE CLOSED ON THURSDAY, JANAURY 9 DUE TO LOCAL FIRES

As of 9:00am, the Santa Anita Park Fire Marshall, in coordination with local authorities, reports there is no direct threat to Santa Anita Park from the wildfires to the north. The track continues to remain outside the voluntary evacuation zone. The winds are blowing from east to west, embers and smoke are being pushed into the mountains and away from Santa Anita Park. The fire’s progress is being consistently monitored and any change will be updated accordingly.

Our thoughts are with everyone in our community affected by the wildfires. While the track is not in any imminent danger, Santa Anita has instituted a voluntary evacuation for any trainer who would like to move their horses due to poor air quality. Santa Anita will relocate those horses to another CHRB Facility.
