A Thoroughbred High Point Award will be presented at the Santa Anita CSI3* & Santa Anita CSI5*-W, the prestigious show jumping events hosted in partnership by 1/ST and Split Rock Jumping Tour at 1/ST’s iconic Santa Anita Park. Both weeks the awards are co-sponsored by Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance and California Retirement Management Account (CARMA). The Santa Anita Show Jumping 2026 event includes the week one Santa Anita CSI3* (November 11–15), featuring California Crown Weekend and the $125,000 California Crown CSI3* 1.50m Grand Prix, and the week two Santa Anita CSI5*-W (November 18–22), home to the $400,000 Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™ Los Angeles.
The Santa Anita Park Thoroughbred High Point Award will be presented to the highest-placing Thoroughbred each week. With the goal of showcasing the diversity of Thoroughbred talent, this award is open to all participants—no matter the division competing during the Santa Anita CSI3* & Santa Anita CSIS*-W. Winners will receive a monetary prize of $2,000, a Santa Anita Park race day package, and high point ribbon.
