Summertime Oaks

The Summertime Oaks is an American Thoroughbred horse race run annually in June at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California. The Grade II event is open to three-year-old fillies willing to race on dirt at a distance of one and one-sixteenth miles. The race was inaugurated in 1946 as the Hollywood Oaks and was originally run at Hollywood Park Racetrack.^[1]
