Long delay between posts, and it is going to be that way for a while because I haven´t finished up moving yet. Anyway, this is a strange track, kind of a romboid shape, with a short straight (less than 300m long), 1000m, 1200m and 1600m chutes, and a total circumference of 1800m. It also has several dirt training tracks.

So, what is so special about this racecourse you may ask? Well, I´ve been doing some research and it seems it is the southernmost racetrack of the world. Of corse I could be wrong but I scouted Argentina and Chile´s south and didn´t find any.
This is a 1880m left-handed racecourse with three chutes, and an alternate track for steeplechase. It also has two completely separate inner dirt tracks, and both inner tracks have inner turf tracks. It has a remarkable square form.
