The Hipódromo de San Isidro is a horse racing track located in San Isidro, Buenos Aires, Argentina, owned by the Argentine Jockey Club. It is one of the largest and most important racetracks in the Americas. Approximately 120 racing days are held per year, on every Wednesday, every other Friday and Saturday, and some Sundays.
The Hipódromo is located 22 km from Buenos Aires City.
In 1926, the Argentine Jockey Club purchased 316 hectares for the purposes of building an additional racecourse to accompany its Hipódromo de Palermo. In 1930, a golf course was completed on the property, designed by Allister Mckenzie. The course itself was built using the latest methods, with accompanying training tracks, stalls, and veterinary hospital building. On December 8, 1935, the racecourse was completed and opened.
