SUMMARY:Del Mar Racing — Pacific Classic Day (Grade I)
DESCRIPTION:There's one Saturday every summer when Del Mar stops being a pleasant day at the races and becomes the day — when the grandstand is full to the rails\, the infield is packed\, and more money moves through the windows than any other afternoon of the meet. The horses know it too\; you can feel the difference in the paddock before the first race is even run.\n\nThe Pacific Classic is Del Mar's version of the Derby — a mile and a quarter\, the longest and richest race of the summer at a million dollars\, drawing the best horses in training in North America. The names that have won it are the ones people still argue about: Zenyatta\, Shared Belief\, Accelerate. Standing at the rail when that field walks to the gate in the late-afternoon light\, with the Grade I Torrey Pines already run earlier on the card\, is the summer's whole meaning compressed into two minutes.\n\nDel Mar\, August 22 — the Classic runs late afternoon. This is the one race day that sells completely differently from the rest of the meet\, so get your spot early: the infield for the atmosphere\, the turf club for the view.
