Horse Racing - 3rd and 4th Days in 2013: Weekend Racing within Mourning

11 years ago - April 05, 2013

At background of mourning will be held this weekend, the 3rd and 4th days of racing. MTC deploys to great lengths to be made a tribute to flood victims during this weekend classic, which will be marked by the holding of Sunday Duchess Of York Cup.

The Mauritius Turf Club this week will honor the victims of the floods that hit the country, especially the capital, last Saturday, thus causing the cancellation of the second day of racing after only two events.

Activities will be planned for this weekend races on Saturday and Sunday to help also Disaster Canal Dayot.

The six events cancelled last week will be played on Sunday and will feature six events were held with the exception of a change in the jockey Gujadhur, which hosts the Mauritian Nooresh Juglall awaiting the arrival of the holder, Briton Richard Mullen.

Saturday's has grown to the image of the main event where good horses compete on the Draper's Mile. The main contender for victory September Wind, which happened this year with the team Rousset. His challengers will be Captain's Key, Elusive River, Royal Chalon, Abington, Al's Dreputy and Solar Symbol.

Sunday is the day she placed under the sign of the Play On Line Duchess Of York Cup race in which Tales Of Bravery, Solo Traveller, Polar Bound, Top Seller and to a lesser extent Glitter Star are the leading candidates to victory .
