Horse racing

 

k_36.jpg (12685 bytes) Horse racing in Hungary has an almost two-hundred-year-old history. What is so special about Hungarian horse racing is its location: it is unique that in the centre of a capital city there are two race-courses like there are in Budapest.
Every year on the first Sunday of July the most important race of the year, the Hungarian Derby is run where the best three-year-olds of the course line up for the start to compete for the blue ribbon. k_50.jpg (22356 bytes)
