Usually at the big races I never sit anyhow. I wander from the best available standing view of the the paddock, to the best available view of trackside starting gate or finish line, and the Winner's Circle.

(come to think of it, that's what I do most any day of attending races.....)

I'm see General Admission at Santa Anita allows paddock viewing, so I guess the trackside ground level viewing is a given?

It has been that way at any other track I've ever attended.

I've been to all three BC's at Santa Anita. Its best to roam around. Unless it's changed, General Admission is the way to go. You can go from paddock to apron easily.
