Chapter 1639: Galloping horse
After the song "My Hometown of Kentucky", the second day of the Breeders Cup officially kicked off.
The first race to be held was not the One Mile New Horse Meadow Race in which these two-year-old stallions participated, but the Breeders Cup Marathon bid.
This is a race for adult horses aged three years and above. The distance is one and three-quarter miles. It is the longest race in the Breeders' Cup. The championship prize is 500,000 US dollars.
In contrast, this competition is not that important, the prize money is average, and the level of horse racing involved in the competition is not particularly good, mainly for endurance!
Of course, this is the top thoroughbred race after all. Every horse races at a very fast speed, which is by no means comparable to other racehorses.
The music stopped, and everyone just sat down. The twelve thoroughbred racehorses participating in this race, led by several race staff riding on horses, lined up into the arena.
On the saddles of these adult thoroughbred race horses, there is a jockey with a sharp stature and a relatively short height sitting, and it is the trainer of these race horses that leads the race horses into the field.
As soon as these twelve thoroughbred racehorses appeared, they immediately ignited the atmosphere in front of the Keeneland Racecourse and countless live broadcasts, pushing the atmosphere to the first climax today.
"Papa Papa"
Thunderous applause suddenly sounded, resounding throughout the Keeneland Racecourse and countless live broadcasts.
Along with applause, there were countless cheers.
The owners of these racehorses, their relatives and entourage, the spectators who knew these racehorses, or the people who bet on these racehorses, all cheered loudly and shouted the names of different racehorses.
For Ye Tian and the others, this game has nothing to do with them.
There is neither Ye Tian's horse race nor they bet on any horse race. Just be a spectator and enjoy a wonderful race.
Soon, under the guidance of the competition staff, twelve thoroughbred racehorses entered the starting gate one after another, ready for the race.
Immediately afterwards, the on-site commentator introduced each horse from the inside to the outside according to the different starting gates.
The information introduced includes the name of the horse, the specific age, the past record, where it came from, and the name of the rider, the name of the owner and so on!
Following the introduction of the on-site commentator, the applause continued and cheers continued.
After the introduction, when the voice of the on-site commentator fell, the applause and cheers resounding through the Keeneland Racecourse also fell, and the entire racecourse was instantly quiet.
Regardless of the audience at Keeneland Racecourse or the countless audiences in front of the live broadcast, everyone was gazing at the twelve starting gates and the thoroughbred racehorses with breathlessness and excitement.
"Ring Ling Ling"
A crisp and sweet bell rang, and twelve electronic starting doors opened simultaneously.
In the next moment, the twelve thoroughbred racehorses that were already ready to go, under the urging of their jockeys, rushed out from the starting gate swiftly and violently like an arrow from the string.
"Tattoo"
The torrential sound of horseshoes was amplified by a loudspeaker, and blasted over the Keeneland Racecourse, blasting in everyone's ears, and it made people excited.
Look at the thoroughbred race horses that rushed out of the starting gate, one by one, struggling to raise their hoofs, rushing to the front, trying to seize the most advantageous position on the track.
During this period, whether it is a fast racing horse or a jockey on a horse, some contact or collision will inevitably occur, and the scene looks quite thrilling.
At the beginning of the game, a wonderful drama kicked off.
Like all the other spectators on the scene, Ye Tian stopped talking, focusing on the fast-speeding horses and admiring their vigorous posture.
After rushing out of the starting gate for about one or two hundred meters, these thoroughbred racehorses have taken up their positions and separated a certain distance from each other. The scene is not so thrilling.
Next, there will be a competition of speed and endurance.
Which racehorse is faster, has better endurance, and the jockey's level is better, which racehorse can have the last laugh and wear the championship wreath.
"Tattoo"
The sound of horseshoes in everyone's ears has become denser, and those pure-blood racehorses with a vigorous body are getting closer and closer to everyone!
In a blink of an eye, these twelve pure-blood race horses with different coat colors rushed past the track in front of Ye Tian and their eyes, and the sound of their hoofs was thundering and lightning fast, shocking.
When these thoroughbred racehorses passed in front of everyone's eyes, David asked excitedly:
"Steven, among the twelve thoroughbred racehorses, are you optimistic about that racehorse that will eventually win the championship? I am more optimistic about the leading black racehorse, Melancholy Prince"
Ye Tian turned his head and looked at this guy, then looked at the pure-blood racing horses that were speeding by, then smiled and said loudly:
"David, my opinion is different from yours. This is a marathon after all. The horse that rushes to the forefront at the beginning may not be able to hold the advantage until the end.
In comparison, I am more optimistic about the maroon racehorse, the red devil, which is ranked third. It is staggered from the previous two racehorses and runs a little bit outside.
In this way, it can eliminate the interference of the first two racehorses, allow the jockey to better judge the situation and respond, and can also use his position to suppress the subsequent racehorses.
Of course, in the end it depends on the strength of the horse racing. I don't know much about these thoroughbred horses, so it is not easy to predict. It is difficult to say that the horse will win the championship! "
The distance of one and three-quarters of a mile is not long, not short!
Although this is the longest race in the Breeders' Cup, it is called a marathon, but under these galloping pure blood horses, it is just a distance that can be run in the blink of an eye.
Soon, the game entered the sprint stage.
Amidst thunderous applause ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the racehorse with white gas in its mouth and the first to cross the finish line is neither the melancholy prince David is optimistic, nor the red devil that Ye Tian is optimistic about!
The first to cross the line to win this year's Breeders' Cup Marathon was a late starter chestnut racehorse named Alabama Star.
As the name suggests, this thoroughbred racehorse is obviously from Alabama.
This is a famous racehorse, known for its endurance, winning the marathon championship is not surprising!
Today's first competition is over, and the champion is decided!
"Papa Papa"
Thunderous applause sounded again, very enthusiastic, and instantly flooded the entire Keeneland Racecourse.
Ye Tian and the others did the same, applauding the winner of this game.
When the applause fell slightly, Ye Tian immediately said to Betty:
"My dear, let's go to the entrance of the arena, meet the cute little guy of Jue Ying, and cheer up that little guy so that it will be a blockbuster."
"Okay, dear, I can't wait to see the little guy from Jueying galloping on the field. It must be very charming and invincible when it runs!"
Betty nodded excitedly, her eyes full of expectation.
Next, Ye Tian said a few words to Sam and David, and then a few people left their seats together and walked towards the entrance of the stadium talking and laughing.
Alan, who was sitting not far behind, took a deep look at Ye Tian's back, got up and left his seat, and took a few people around to the entrance of the stadium.
At this time, the just-winning ‘Star of Alabama’ is going around the stadium to celebrate, enjoying the wave of applause and the joy of victory!
