Regarded as the most prestigious race in Germany, the 2019 Grosser Preis von Baden attracted a high class field of nine runners, however, as racecourse commentator Marvin Schridde remarked in the closing stages, it was a ‘one horse show’ as Ghaiyyah flew clear of his opposition under jockey William Buick for a phenomenal fourteen lengths victory ahead of the three year old filly Donjah, with Laccarion, winner of this year’s German Derby, back in third. After the race, jockey Buick was full of praise for the winner. ‘He’s an amazing horse, he showed in the trial for the Prix Ganay just what he can do. We don’t really know what went wrong in the Prix Ganay itself (finished third), but he’s a monster. An absolute monster’. When asked about future plans for the horse including a possible tilt at the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp next month, trainer Appleby commented ‘This race is a good prep for the Arc, but I’ll speak to Sheikh Mohammed and see where we go from here. I’m delighted though that Ghaiyyath showed today just what he can do'. Bookmakers Racebets reacted by making Ghaiyyath a 6-1 chance for the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, where superstar filly Enable is expected to have her last ever race. jockey SONJA DAROSZEWSKI, who landedYou another can see victory the aboardGrosser the Preis Christian von Baden von der Recke-trained STORM OF SWORDShere: to win the big race on the first day of the Bad Harzburg Racing Festival, the Preishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2QhKW der Hotel Achtermann Goslar (Photo copyright Stefanie Ihlenburg / Anglo German5qwTs Racing).

News Round-Up - Germany WUTZELMANN TAKES QUAKENBRÜCK SEEJAGDRENNEN The Anna Schleusner-Fruhriep trained WUTZELMANN repeated his victory from last year in the final Seejagdrennen lake steeplechase of the season in Germany when winning the Preis der Firma JCK Holding Seejagdrennen at Quakenbrück on Sunday. Having won one of the two Seejagdrennen races at the Bad Harzburg racing festival last time out, Wutzelmann, ridden as he was at Bad Harzburg by Czech jockey Pavel Slozil jr, led from start to finish in the 12,500 Euro contest, crossing the line 4 ½ lengths clear of Leierspielerin, with Turfrubin, trained like Leierspielerin by Pavel Vovcenko, 22 lengths back in third. The race capped a double for trainer Schleusner-Fruhriep and jockey Slozil, who had earlier won the other jumps race on the card, the Preis der Firmen Lager-Huslage/Dein Energiebüro/Mitschke steeplechase with APOLEON, who despite making his chasing debut, carried a quite asotising 83 kilos to victory, which is believed may well be a 21st century record for a professional riders steeplechase.

Having unseated his jockey in a hurdle race last year on his jumps debut, Ayzer, who like Arzimovich was defending an unbeaten record over fences, displayed a much more sure footed round of jumping this time around, and appeared to be cruising in front under jockey Alexander Simonov, having seized the lead from Arzimovich at the first of two banks over the 4200 metre course. With Arzimovich struggling to negotiate the second bank three from home, Ayzer and jockey Simonov powered clear, and built up a lead of about 20 lengths approaching the second last obstacle. However, Ayzer’s hitherto excellent round of jumping seemed to desert him as he appeared to catch the top of the fence, sending both horse and jockey sprawling into the turf. Happily, both Ayzer and jockey Simonov were fine, and in true Russian jockey style, Simonov remounted Ayzer. However, by this time, Arzimovich had sprinted past under jockey Anton Orchinsky, and the pair came home unchallenged from Ayzer, with the only other runner in the race, Sbrak, well back in third. Krasnodar Racecourse have produced a video of all nine races on Saturday’s card which can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rLoblSUBKo (The steeplechase was the last contest on the card, and the build up and race can be seen approximately 35:00 into the video). FALCON FLIES TO SLOVAKIAN OAKS SUCCESS FALCON BABY followed up her success in July’s Czech Oaks, with victory in the Slovakian equivalent of the fillies classic at Bratislava on Sunday. Ridden for the first time by Polish jockey Piotr Krowicki, the Irish-bred Falcon Baby hit the front as the field turned for the home in the race, which at 2000 metres, is 400 metres shorter that its Czech equivalent. However, the shorter distance made no difference to the Helena Vocaskova-trained Falcon Baby, as she crossed the line 3 ½ lengths clear of nearest challenger Lady Roseburg, with Irish import Nikeandnemesis completing a 1-2-3 for Czech-based trainers.

News Round-Up - Europe CRYSTAL CUP HERO TIPPED FOR MORE STEEPLECHASE GLORY This year’s renewal of the Wielka Wroclawska Nagroda Portu Lotniczego Wrocław, widely regarded as the biggest jumps race in Poland, takes place at the Partynice course at Wroclaw on Sunday. Seven runners line up for the 175,000 PLN (approx 40,330 EUR) contest over 5000 metres, five of which are trained in the Czech Republic, including DELIGHT MY FIRE, winner of this race in both 2015 and 2017, and runner up in 2016. Having had a largely disappointing 2018, Delight my Fire has shown signs of returning to her old form with two second placed finishes this year, but needs to bounce back from a below par showing at Pardubice last time out, in a race where SZTORM, who re-opposes here, was second. Trained in the Czech Republic by Polish-born Greg Wroblewski, Sztorm also won this race last year, and was unbeaten in all three of his races last year, all of which took place at Wroclaw, including the Polish leg of the Crystal Cup cross country series. A confirmed course specialist with a touch of class, Sztorm has a if chance here. Like Sztorm, PARETO has fine course form, and has been placed in this race four times. Although his best days may be behind him at twelve, this consistent chaser, who has form figures at Wroclaw of 14332223, looks set to be placed again on Sunday. LARIZANO would have a big shout on his best form, but this eleven year old has only run three times in the last 2½ years, and was last of six finishers at Lysa nad Laben last time out, whilst the Czech challenge in completed by REKI, who looked destined for the top having won the Crystal Cup race at Wroclaw in 2017, but hasn’t quite hit those heights since.

  • Derby Double for Frankel As Hurricane Lane Swoops
    SUNDAY, 27 JUNE 2021 DERBY DOUBLE FOR SANTA BARBARA TO THE TEST IN PRETTY POLLY FRANKEL AS HURRICANE There have been valid excuses for her missing the target so far in 2021, but Sunday=s G1 Alwasmiyah Pretty Polly S. at The LANE SWOOPS Curragh offers the ideal opportunity for >TDN Rising Star= Santa Barbara (Ire) (Camelot {GB}) to deliver on her promise. Lacking vital experience when fourth in the G1 1000 Guineas at Newmarket May 2 she was probably undone by a combination of a 12-furlong trip and testing ground when fifth in the June 4 G1 Epsom Oaks. AShe clearly ran a hugely promising race for a horse coming off the back of just a maiden win when fourth in the Guineas and that was always going to be a big ask for her over a mile on fast ground in a Classic first time up,@ Ryan Moore commented. AIt looks like the trip proved beyond her in bad conditions when fifth in the Oaks last time, so this 10-furlong trip could prove her optimum. Hopefully she can take a step forward here, but she is up against some horses of a similar ability and in some cases higher-rated opposition so this is another tough Group 1 assignment for her.@ Cont. p10 Hurricane Lane (right) | Racingfotos.com It was a Derby double for Frankel (GB) on Saturday as Godolphin=s Hurricane Lane (Ire) stepped forward to emulate his stablemate Adayar (Ire) in flying the flag for his sire in The Curragh=s G1 Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby.
