926. Vintage Arena (2/5)

There is also a track in the Luke family's racecourse, which is beyond Wang Bo's expectations. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When walking to the racecourse, Ma Long introduced him to understand that the facilities of this horse farm are very complete, including an indoor horse farm, an obstacle course, a practice range, a training field and a pasture farm.

"This is the first official racecourse in the Aujo area, and in the first 50 years of the last century, many of the South Island races were held here, and then with the rise of some large cities, the racecourse changed places."

"However, there are still a lot of racing teams in the South Island who keep their horses here and train here, after all, the Luke family horse farm is still very large and regular."

"It's also very small." Luke added with a smile.

There are two people walking horses in the arena, they are tall horses with eight years of experience under their crotches, Wang Bo does not understand this sport, nor does he know the horse breed, he does not know what breed of horse this is, but he can see that the breed is very good.

After the two sides met, Luke beckoned to the two and said hello: "Hey, there's a new guy coming, how about a game together?" ”

A short, thin young man laughed, "That's great, my red rocket has just warmed up, and this kid can't wait to get some exercise." ”

Another man is also of a similar size, Wang Bo found at this time, it seems that the jockeys are short and thin, of course, this can be understood, there are many factors affecting horse racing, and the biggest impact is the weight on the back.

Just like when they participated in the dog sled race in Rovaniemi at Christmas, the strong man and the queen ran so fast, also because the little loli on the sleigh was very light.

When they arrived, two more men came with two horses.

The two horses were draped in raincoat-like clothes, and Wang Bo asked, "Why are they still wearing clothes?" ”

Luke gave him a strange look and replied, "This is a mosquito suit, there are too many mosquitoes in summer, it will hurt the horses, and even if it doesn't, their presence will make the horses uncomfortable and affect their rest." ”

After the introduction, he couldn't help but ask, "You won't pass this thing through your horse, will you?" ”

Wang Bo coughed and said embarrassedly, "I didn't pass through anything." ”

The local tyrant Jin and the black horse king don't care about mosquitoes, because they are born as wild horses, with thick skin and rough meat!

People's horses are like babies, wearing mosquito suits, combing their hair after taking them off, and then feeding them something to make the horses excited, and then leading them to do warm-up exercises.

The local tyrant Jin here was like a two-to-two, staring left and right with big eyes, and when a horse approached, it also leaned over and howled.

The horse was taken aback, and the jockey on the horse hurriedly comforted it, and at the same time said to Wang Bo dissatisfied: "Take care of your horse, my family's wildfire is very sensitive, and I will definitely make you look good if you scare it." ”

In this matter, the local tyrant Jin did something wrong first, although it was just a prank for it, and it was not really trying to hurt the other horses.

Wang Bo wanted to apologize, but the jockey's words made him a little angry, what do you mean by 'make us look good'? Is this the rhythm of the fight?

Angry, he didn't bother to apologize.

Here Ma Long was even more angry, and sneered: "It's the first time I've heard someone write such a fresh and refined novel, but it's okay, your horse is only three and a half years old, right?" It's really timid at this age, and I don't have much knowledge. ”

The jockey was enraged by his yin and yang strange words, and said, "What did you say? Sir, you may not know about horse racing, horses are very sensitive, but not like your horse, oh, I'm sorry, is this a horse? It's funny. ”

Ma Long smiled: "Yes, but I bet you won't be able to laugh later, and as long as you see my family's local tyrant Jin in the future, you won't be able to laugh again." ”

Wang Bo understands why this old man offends so many people on the field, he is very kind in life, why is he so domineering on the field.

The two sides were about to fight, and Luke came over to stop them and said, "Okay, it's time for us to play, can you be quiet?" ”

Leaving a phrase of 'see you on the racecourse', both sides entered the stall with their horses to prepare for the race.

Unlike other sports, in world horse racing, there is no specific track size, and there are various specifications, of which the main one is oval.

The Luke Family Racecourse is built on a hillside and has a more natural geographical condition, with a clear uphill and downhill slope in the racecourse, a long straight line, and an irregular shape of the course.

Wang Bo was worried that such a horse farm would hurt the racehorses, but Luke knew that he was a rookie, so he didn't laugh at him, and patiently introduced him.

"It's a European racecourse style, built against the hill and with a slope, so that the horses are always on their toes when they run, which of course may make it harder for the horses to run."

"Modern horse farms tend to have flat terrain and are oval-shaped, so that fans can watch the races. But when we built the racecourse, it wasn't in vogue. ”

The Luke Family Racecourse has two tracks, the outer ring is a competition track with a total length of 1,200 meters and a width of 20 meters, and the inner ring is a training track with a total length of 1,100 meters and a width of 15 meters.

There is an open-air grandstand on one side of the venue, which is divided into three floors, the first floor is the hall, and the second and third floors are set up with simple VIP rooms.

Luke handed Wang Bo a telescope, and several people sat in the huge stands, looking a little lonely.

Wang Bo looked around and found that the horse farm was indeed very old, and the grandstand should have been renovated many times, but there were still many problems, such as the cement grandstand had been mottled, and the guardrail in front was repaired with different wood, which looked uneven.

As the race was about to start, Luke asked, "I heard your horse has been running on the grass, will it fit into my sand field?" ”

Generally speaking, there are several types of racetracks for horse racing: grass, mud, sand and artificial tracks, just as tennis players play differently on different surfaces, and horses play differently on different textures.

Wang Bodao: "No problem, it sometimes runs on the road, and I don't think the speed has changed." ”

At this time, the race began, and at the sound of the order, the stall opened, and the jockeys were driving the horses under their crotches to gallop.

This was the first game of the local tyrant Kim, and he didn't understand what it was doing at first, and when the stall opened, he looked stupidly to the left and right.

The horses on the left and right all ran out, rushing out more than ten meters in an instant.

Luke shook his head and said, "This horse hasn't figured it out yet...... Oh Shet, oh Shet! ”

When he found that the other horses were running forward, the local tyrant Jin still didn't understand what they were doing, but he didn't like to be overtaken by the horses, so he immediately ran.

The other horses use their explosive power, and a sprint is ten meters, which is already quite amazing.

But the performance of the local tyrant gold is even stronger! (To be continued.) )
