Brazilian horse race
Horse race
The Grande Prêmio Cruzeiro do Sul, also known as the Brazilian Derby,[1] is a Group 1 flat horse race in Brazil open to three-year-olds run over a distance of 2,400 metres (1.5 mi) at Hipódromo da Gávea every April. It is the third leg of the Rio de Janeiro Triple Crown.
History
The Grande Prêmio Cruzeiro do Sul was first run in 1883 in the spring. The race was not run in 1886 as it moved to an autumn runtime. Aside from 1966, the race has been run every year since then.[2] Since its inception, the race has been run over the same distance of 2400 meters.[2][3]
In 2020, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the race was run in June instead of its usual April date.[4]
