These are questions out of shear ignorance as to how Oak Tree is different from the Spring Santa Anita meet or the Hollywood meet.
What really is the difference?
Is Oak Tree just renting the track?
If so, who actually owns the track? (I had enough with the recent NYRA debacle).
Do they use the same stewards?
Do they use the same track maintenence crew?
In light of the possible change in takeout does Oak Tree have to have the same takeout as the other So Cal tracks?
Is it like NYRA having 3 tracks under one jurisdiction and the CHRB is really the governing body no matter what?
In the case of someone like Ziade being ruled off the grounds at Calder but able to run elswhere - would Oak Tree have to honor a banishment from SA's Spring meet?
Again, these are honest questions because I have no idea.
If someone had a link that wasn't influenced by lawyers i would be happy to read it on my own.
I'm just trying to get a grasp on who runs what - Santa Anita Spring, Hollywood, Delmar, Fairplex and Oak Tree. I never thought I would think that it was more complicated than NYRA.
Thanks
