The announcement that Golden Gate Fields will shut down in December has hundreds of workers scrambling to respond to the imminent loss of their jobs.
Thoroughbred trainer Jacqui Navarre said she is worried about her future.
Navarre and her husband, race official Steve Fisher, both work at Golden Gate Fields. The couple isn't sure what they'll do or where they will go for work. "I feel terrible for all the people, the workers on the backside," Fisher said. "Where are they going to go?" The Stronach Group, which owns the track, said it's consolidating racing operations at its higher-profile tracks in Southern California, Santa Anita Park and San Luis Rey Downs. "The only ones who might have jobs at Santa Anita are the Golden Gate employees who work in the office," she said. The rest of us who work back here? We're on our own."
