Del Mar 2022: New arrival Hector Berrios is a force on turf

Hector Berrios won the eighth race at Del Mar on Thursday. It was his eighth win from 35 starts this summer on turf. He is a native of Chile and won more than 2,500 races in his home country. His best season came in 2020 when he banked more that $2.5 million in purse earnings. He has had two stakes winners at the meet, including his first-ever graded stakes. The agent who took over Beri's book said he is intelligent. Berio's agent said his relationship with Marcelo Polanco helped him land the mounts for Berrio.
