Three handicap races proposed for Friday’s program at Santa Anita based on a recently created rating system failed to draw sufficient interest when entries were taken Sunday.
Three ratings-based races will be offered for Saturday’s program, with slightly different conditions for two races. Track officials said ratings-based races will be offered for Sunday’s final day of the track’s autumn meeting. Entries for those days were scheduled to be taken on Monday and Tuesday.
Santa Anita is the first track in the nation to offer handicap races based on ratings.
