[1] The Gran Premio Latinoamericano is the only Group 1 race in the world that is itinerant and changes location and country every year.
[2] The race is run annually in March (excepting exceptional circumstances requiring a change in date) over a distance between 2000 metres (1.2 mi) and 2400 metres (1.5 mi) on either a dirt or turf track and is open to horses three-year-old or older that have been either nominated by a member racecourse or their owner.
Mexico, Panama, and Puerto Rico later joined the Association, and in 2012 the Association was integrated into OSAF, the South American Organization for the Development of Thoroughbreds (Organización Sudamericana de Fomento del Sangre Pura de Carrera).
[7] The 2006 running was the first time the race was simulcasted in North America, with Laurel Park serving as the hub.
[8] The 2010 edition, run at Club Hípico de Santiago in Chile, was postponed until September due to an earthquake.
