Adelaide’s Italian community has been urged to rally behind SA racehorse Regalo Di Gaetano’s bid to secure a spot in the world’s richest mile race the $5 million All-Star Mile.
Carrying silks bearing the green, white and red colours of the Italian flag, and with a story stretching back 30 years and involving a local Italian family, the horse needs the South Australian public to vote him into the field for the All-Star Mile, to be run at Moonee Valley.
Regalo Di Gaetano is among 83 nominations for the race and securing a spot would mean the world for part-owner Bruno Disotto, who has been involved in the horse’s lineage since the 1990s. Currently he sits 14th in voting behind star WA mare Arcadia Queen.
