The purpose of this study is to analyze how elite families in Recife used turf as a way of diversifying their businesses in the face of an uncertain situation, taking into account a series of prohibitions that went against the slavery situation – one of the its most profitable markets – such as the prohibition of transatlantic trafficking (1850), the free womb law (1871) and, finally, the abolition of slavery (1888). In this sense, I aim to observe how these agents created a network of social and financial support, since in 1850 the first tourist institution was installed and in the final years of the 1880s three clubs were opened that boosted the social and economic life of the provincial capital from Pernambuco throughout the 1800s. In these circumstances, analyzing horse riding through these paradigms makes it possible to understand the social and economic relationships of the agents who were involved in equestrian clubs in the capital of the province of Pernambuco.
