On DVD or VHS: See the best in racing that SANTA ANITA had to offer for the 1999 Season!
The 1998-1999 Santa Anita season closed out the century with the same championship quality that has become synonymous with the track since its 1934 opening. The last meet of the century saw the historic landmark undergoing an outward change but the championship soul of Santa Anita continued...a California favorite finally fulfilled his destiny, two sprinters turned in a rivalry for the ages, 1999 was the third year that Santa Anita has been tracking the twin Thoroughbred colts that were born in 1996: FREYA STEVE and FREYA BOB, and a CHARISMATIC three-year-old developed a Triple Crown personality.
As they have for the past six decades, the nation's top horses, jockeys, trainers and owners made Santa Anita their winter residence competing not only against each other but also against the legends that came before them.
