I particularly want to finish the June newsletter on time, before the end of May, for two reasons. Firstly, the last two newsletters have been delayed, it is good to restore a bit of self-discipline. Secondly, the main trial for the Czech Derby will be run at Prague Velká Chuchle on May 31st, and I do not want to write about that race here.
Venus Travel and Tours is celebrating its 25th anniversary (1990 – 2015) in the business of selling travel to Greece and Cyprus with a big festival of Greek and Cypriot song and dance, wine and food at Prague Velká Chuchle racecourse on Sunday June 7th.
The first of the four qualification races for the 2015 Velka Pardubicka was run on good ground at Pardubice racecourse on May 23rd. There were 18 runners. Trezor, winner of 5 VP qualification races was unable to run, due to problems with shoeing him. There were 16 finishers, which all thus qualify for the VP, which will be run on Sunday, October 11th. Universe of Gracie, which finished 4th in last year’s VP, ridden by Jan Faltejsek, went to the front from the beginning of the race, and was only briefly headed on the last bend.
Dear Mrs Martina Růžičková,
Dear Horseracing Fans
In recent days, things have been bubbling in Czech horseracing, and not just because the season is in full flow.
Fifty-six horses have been entered for the Velka Pardubicka, which will be run on Sunday, October 11th. The entries include 17 of the 23 runners in VP 2014. There are three Slovak-trained entries, three French-trained, two from Ireland and none from the UK.
The race conditions for the second half of the Czech horseracing season, which is the main part of the season as far as 2-y-os are concerned, will be finalized at the meeting of the Council of the Jockey Club on May 15th.
The Czech Two Thousand Guineas (the 94th running of the Rabbit Holding CZ Spring Grand Prix), Listed, 1600 metres, CzK 700.000, run at Prague Velká Chuche, was won by the odds-on favourite, Aldar. French-bred Aldar, by New Approach (IRE) out of an Aldabaran (USA) mare, won by 1¼ from Tamarind Cove (IRE), with Sirius Shine (IRE) in 3rd place.
