A flareup of the wildfire on the west side of Los Angeles that prompted new evacuations has caused Santa Anita to cancel horse racing this weekend
The conceptual idea behind the text is that Santa Anita racetrack has prioritized fire relief efforts over hosting its weekend races.
While air quality at the track is safe for racing, the track is being used as a staging area for various relief organizations due to the ongoing wildfires in LA County. This includes relocating a charity drop-off site and serving as a basecamp for Southern California Edison to restore power. The decision to cancel racing demonstrates the track's commitment to supporting the community during this critical time.
