The sensational performance of Czech-trained Subway Dancer

Trainer Radim Bodlák was delighted last Sunday with the result achieved by Tiara Man, which won the Popler Memorial on Velka Pardubicka day, but less pleased with Delight My Fire, which came down at the Popkovice Turn in the Velka.

*VP day 2018 was remarkably sunny and warm for mid October in the Czech Republic, and a massive crowd enjoyed a beautiful day at the racecourse, though, to tell the truth, it would have been more comfortable if fewer people had been there.

The 2018 Velka Pardubicka was run on a remarkably sunny, pleasantly warm mid-October afternoon. The bright weather had brought out the largest crowd, by some margin, that I have seen at Pardubice racecourse over a period of 25 years. The course had been affected by a long, very hot and very dry summer, but it had been watered quite extensively.
