Derby Italiano

description Derby Italiano Overview

The Derby Italiano is a Group 2 flat horse race held annually at Capannelle Racecourse in Rome for three-year-old thoroughbreds, first established in 1881. Run over a distance of 2,200 meters (approximately 1 mile 3 furlongs) on turf, the race was downgraded from Group 1 to Group 2 status in 2015. Notable winners include Botticelli (1968), whom Italian racing authorities named their Horse of the Century, and European champions Tony Bin (1988) and White Muzzle (1993). The Derby Italiano remains one of Italy's most prestigious horse racing events and part of the European classic races for three-year-olds.
