Since 1845, at some stage in the evening's low tide within the month of August, the seashores of Sanlúcar de Barrameda had been used for horse races. Popular subculture has it that the origins of those celebrations go again to the casual competitions that came about among fishmongers, to look who should get to market first.

 

The occasion comprises two 3-day cycles. On each day, under a superb sundown, riders compete for various prizes in a lively ecosystem. Anyone can attend free of charge and at the end line there are respectable making a bet stands to make the races even more interesting. Extra amusing is furnished by means of the youngsters, who organise their very own bets from authentic, colourful stands they set up all along the seashore. The festivities in Sanlúcar in honour of the neighborhood patron saint are held for the duration of the equal period, and characteristic parades of carts and carpet of flora inside the streets in the centre of city.
