Horse race

There will be a horse race (horse plus rider without chariot) in the closing day of the Ludi. The maximum number of horses will be 8 and the Praetura asked the help of the Factiones heads to try to have 2 horses from each Factio. In this way any citizen who wishes to enter a horse for the race should contact the respective Factio heads:

Factio Albata - C. Maria Caeaca

Factio Praesina - Since there wasn't any contact from the Faction Praesina citizens from it should contact C. Aemilius Crassus

Factio Russata - Cn. Cornelius Lentulus

Factio Veneta - M. Pompeius Caninus

The rules for the horse race are identical to the rules for the normal chariot races and can be found at here except that:

- Dirty actions aren’t allowed

- And the tactics are slightly different. They are:

• A. To hurry in the last laps

• B. To start at full speed from the very begin

• C. To support a constant pace

• D. To lash the rivals

• E. To stay with the pack until the last minute, then make a spurt.

• F. To hurry in the straight lines

The last day to enter horses for the race will be a.d. VII Id. Quin. ‡ (July 9th).
