VIII Clasico Internacional Del Caribe, San Juan Puerto Rico. MACO, 1974. Bronze. San Juan P.R. Colombia, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Venezuela, Republica Dominicana. Medal turn. The Clasico Internacional del Caribe occurred after thirteen years of arduous work. Engineer Ramón Llobet Jr and Lic. Abelardo Ruiz Suria, among other distinguished Puerto Rican horsemen, created the event in 1966. This derby was designed in order to strengthen ties of friendship and brotherhood between the Countries of the Caribbean. To be eligible to run in the Clasico a thoroughbred must be bred in one of the confederation member nations.
 
Kentucky Derby Bold Forbes, Jockey Angel Cordero Jr. May 1, 1976. 1976. Silver. Angel Tomas Cordero, Jr. Born May 8, 1942 is one of the leading thoroughbred horse racing jockeys of all time and the only Puerto Rican to date to be inducted into the United States' Racing Hall of Fame. Cordero was born in Santurce Puerto Rico. As a child, Cordero was raised among thoroughbred horses; his father, Angel Cordero Sr. Was a rider and trainer himself and his uncles were also horse trainers. It was therefore only natural that Angel would follow in their footsteps and start racing - which he did at a young age. Angel Cordero Jr. Was the only Puerto Rican jockey to win all three of the American Classic Races races which consist of : The "Kentucky Derby", The "Preakness Stakes" and The "Belmont Stakes". In 1974, when he was 31, Cordero won the Kentucky Derby aboard Cannonade. He won the prestigious Derby twice more, making him one of only eight jockeys to win the race three or more times in the Derby's history. In 1976, he won whilst riding Bold Forbes and in 1985, on Spend A Buck. The Kentucky Derby is held annually in Louisville, Kentucky and is considered by many as the most important race in American thoroughbred racing. In 1976, Cordero won the Belmont Stakes on Bold Forbes, held annually in Elmont, New York and he won the Preakness Stakes twice, once in 1980 aboard Codex and the second time in 1984, aboard Gate Dancer. Among his other accomplishments, Cordero was the winner of four Breeders' Cups and was the leading rider at Saratoga Race Course for thirteen years. Rare.
