At the request of horseplayers, instead of Oak Tree
The "OSA" designation in past performances only dates to the Magna era at Santa Anita, and the Oak Tree request was solely based on that organization's desire to distance itself from Mr. Stronach's operation.
My point is that the powers that be who create the abbreviations should accede to whatever request is most beneficial to horseplayers, and not change fundamental track abbreviations at the whim of managements unless there is something markedly different about the way races are run over what is an identical racecourse.
