Greek Derby

Postby MiesqueFan87 » Thu Aug 04, 2022 10:10 am

Extremely difficult to find these pedigrees. Possibly renamed upon arriving in Greece to race. Or not.

Race may have been first run in 1931 but there's no record if that's the case or if it was first run earlier. The names very hard to translate from modern Greek but I did the best I could. Which is basically 'see if Google Translate will find anything'.
