track ("Hippodroma") was very often visited by the first Czechoslovak president Thomas Garrigue Masaryk, and in 1930, the primary school in Velká Chuchle was named after his wife Charlotte.
On a sunny Sunday, September 6, 2020, the 100th "Czechoslovak" (Czech) derby was held at the racecourse. There was also a great defilé of President Masaryk, represented by a race rider and accompanied by four legionnaires, as well as a parade of racewear of the First Republic. Slovak stallion Opasan won the main race of three-year-old horses with jockey Radek Koplík, so the Slovak anthem was played above the racecourse on this festive day.
