Clásico Vendimia Postponed to March 15 After Heavy Rains in Mendoza

Organizers will keep the full race card unchanged.

Overview

  • The Hipódromo de Mendoza’s racing commission and management delayed the meeting after recent storms left the track unsafe for jockeys and horses.
  • The 77th Clásico Vendimia “Copa Canal 7” remains the feature at 2,200 meters as the 11th and final race, originally scheduled for 18:00.
  • Defending champion Code Breaker, to be ridden by Damián Ledesma for trainer Ramón Abrales, continues to headline a field of 13 entries.
  • San Juan runner Endo Verde, trained by Sergio Perona for caballeriza El Rezongón, is regarded as the principal threat based on recent clashes.
  • The program holds at 11 races from 10:00, including eight Interior-category events (1100–1400 m) and official 425 m and 600 m sprints for Clásico Iniciación and Vendimia Cuadrero, with past benchmarks citing Kenndy Back’s 2'14"2/5 at the distance.
