Los Al is probably a better location. Move the quarter horses to Fairplex

like los al would ever want to give up their night time franchise.

but i'm with you on preferring los al for the available dates. i'd rather sit next to empty headed newport beach than meth headed 909.

Fairplex is able to make money without the horses. It will be intersting to see how long it takes the property value to go back up for Hollywood Park to sell. Its not going to happen as soon as they think.

Haven't those folks been in Pomona in the summertime?!?! Hollywood is not that far from the ocean and gets some cooling from sea breezes. Pomona is inland, in the corridor leading out to Riverside, which is darn HOT in the summertime. It would have to be night racing if Hollywood dates were run at Pomona.

Its a dry heat. It can get hot all over Southern California and it starts the first week of July and can stay that way till October. The location doesnt really matter more that 5 degrees.

i live in a place that is consistently 10 degrees cooler than where i work 26 freeway miles away. and i live 20 miles from the ocean communities which are usually another 10 degrees cooler then where i live.

palmtuckey and landscatter are even hotter than where i work.

i have no idea where you get your idea.

I live in the hills of Glendora and if your not on the beach, Hot is Hot. As for you friends in the valley and desert no one cares how hot it is.
