Trevor Denman, the voice of Santa Anita Park since 1983, announced his
retirement from that venue on Friday in order to “kick back, relax and enjoy
the rest of my life on my farm in Minnesota and do some traveling throughout
America and overseas.” Denman will still call the races during the short summer
stand at Del Mar.
Also on Friday, the American Graded Stakes Committee of the Thoroughbred Owners
and Breeders Association
(TOBA) released the graded and listed stakes races for 2016.
James Scully takes a look at some storylines for the 85-day session at
Gulfstream Park, which begins its championship meet on Saturday, and
