Renowned US-based jockey Javier Castellano will take the reins of Rideallday, adding an extra measure of prestige to the forthcoming event.
Castellano, a Hall of Fame jockey celebrated for his skill, experience, and competitive spirit, boasts numerous major triumphs including victories in the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Breeders’ Cup.
“I am very excited to be part of a wonderful day of racing at Caymanas Park and to have the opportunity to ride in the Mouttet Mile on a fine horse such as Rideallday. I am grateful to all the connections for affording me this chance,” Castellano remarked.
Solomon Sharpe, Executive Chairman of Supreme Ventures Racing & Entertainment Limited (SVREL), operators of Caymanas Park, expressed his enthusiasm: “We are delighted to welcome Javier Castellano to Caymanas Park for the Mouttet Mile. Judging by the entrants in this year’s race, it promises to be fiercely competitive. Rideallday demonstrated his ability when he captured the Port Royal Sprint earlier this month, thereby securing automatic qualification for the Mouttet Mile. With an internationally seasoned jockey like Castellano in the saddle, we may well witness an even stronger performance on 6 December. What is certain is that, given the calibre of the contenders, punters are in for a treat. We encourage fans to attend and enjoy this high-quality race live at Caymanas Park.”
The Mouttet Mile, scheduled for December 6 at Caymanas Park, stands as one of the Caribbean’s most prestigious horse racing fixtures, offering a purse of US$300,000.
