The 126^th renewal of the Velka Pardubicka was in the end won comfortably by Charme Look, owned by Orling, trained by Martina Růžičková and ridden by Jan Faltejsek, which finished 10 lengths ahead of Ange Guardian, trained by Josef Váňa senior, and a further 6 lengths ahead of 3^rd placed Zarif, trained by Josef Váňa senior and ridden by Josef Bartoš.

It should be easy to predict the winner of the Velka Pardubicka. Several of the runners ran in the race last year and in years before that. All of this year’s runners ran in at least one of the four qualification races, held at Pardubice in May, June, August and September. We might just compare the performances and conclude which will finish first, second and third. All things being equal, of course.

Josef Váňa is said to have decided that Rabbit Hawk Wing is not ready for the Velka Pardubicka, and so the living legend will presumably not have a ride in the 2016 Velka Pardubicka.
