Del Mar, CA (SportsNetwork.com) – Del Mar Racetrack begins its 2015 late season meet Friday, taking over the dates once held by Hollywood Park.<\/p>\n
Known as the “Bing Crosby Season” the 15 days of racing at Del Mar will have the usual cast of characters that inhabit Southern California’s tracks this time of year.<\/p>\n
“We’re here to run. We have to support this meet,” trainer Peter Miller said. “If you can’t support the business, you can’t complain when we’re all out of work. We’ve got a bunch of horses that are ready to run. I live 10 minutes from here so it’s kind of a home game for me.<\/p>\n
“I think it’s just a great addition to the racing calendar. I hope it’s very successful and I think it will be.”<\/p>\n
Hall of Fame trainer Richard Mandella is excited to be racing at the track with the lyrical motto: “Where the turf meets the surf.”<\/p>\n
“I’m excited to be here in November,” Mandella said. “I hope that we’ll get enough attendance and support to make it worthwhile, but it’s surely a great thing to be here.<\/p>\n
“With only three weeks it’s not worth moving the whole thing here and changing everybody’s life. Next year, when it’s four weeks, we’ll just move. We’re giving them a warning, basically.”<\/p>\n
Del Mar will offer racing from Nov. 7 through Nov. 30.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
