Comments
The El Nuevo Comandante was constructed in 1976 and was inaugurated on October 31, 1976, as a replacement for the original "El Comandante" building, which had been situated in Carolina from January 1957 to mid-October 1976. It has become arguably the most important horse racing complex on the island, hosting horse races every Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
The logo represents the fast-paced and thrilling nature of horse racing, depicting horses racing neck and neck. The wavy lines and the repetitive figures create a sense of movement and perpetual action.
