Gran Premio Carlos Pellegrini (Grade 1)

[saratogabrit]

South America's richest race is to be run later today-the 14th race in a monster 19 race card. 9 Hours 25 minutes from 1st till last race-possibly making it the longest days racing in the year.

Jorge Ricardo has 16 rides and has already ridden 1 winner early in the card-to take his lead over Russell Baze to 19-9963-9944. He rides Honey Nov in the big race.

What sort of time do they get started in the morning?

Started at 1pm local time and finishes apparently at 2225. They've got the charts for the 1st 6 races up-so they may have run the 7th by now.

He was too indocile and they weren't able to put him into the starting gate.
