    Hand carved sandwiches forever burned in my memory. Fresh bread. The corned beef and roast beef are both worth getting. SO. GOOD.

    Get there early in the morning and check out Clockers Corner for a good breakfast. And a chance to see the horses working along with some of the owners and jockeys.

    The Frontrunner restaurant is great and the food at the Clubhouse Terrace is good. A fun weekend event. Make reservations at either restaurant. Terrace is outside.

    Named the most gorgeous racetrack in the country. I am a native of Kentucky and would have to agree that this track is in a gorgeous convenient location.

    You wouldn't think that a horse track with massive amounts of gambling going on would be a suitable place for kids but check the infield! My daughter loved the playground and they also have pony rides

    take one of the classes they offer on the basics of horse racing. it will make your visit a lot more fun and might help you to win some more $! They're normally held around 11 a.m.

    if you can, get a table in the clubhouse (not sure of the name) that overlooks the track with big glass windows. have lunch, enjoy a drink, place a bet on the ponies - life could be a lot worse.

    The food in the Frontrunners club is fantastic! Had the short ribs today and the meat fell apart on the fork. The strawberry shortcake dessert was light and delicious! You also can't beat the service.

    Good for a cheap day out, plus drinks. Gets hot, but plenty of shade to be found.

    Spring the extra $15 for access to the Turf Club. You’ll have to wear pants and a collar but you’ll feel like a villain from a Bond movie, as opposed to the masses sitting in the infield. Read more

    Most seats in club house can’t see track you need to stand and move around to watch race

    Play hooky on Friday to take advantage of free box seats and $1 specials on all the junk food Santa Anita has to offer. You know what that means, more money to lay down on your favorite horse. Read more

    Pick up a handicapping sheet at the front right after the entrance. They're not sure bets, but helps to find common favorites.

    Go get a loge seat. Place your bet, grab a made-to order ham or turkey sandwich and a draft beer, then sit and enjoy your horse's triumph!
