Among the Irish- and UK-trained entries for the Velka Pardubicka, the most likely runners are Shalimar Fromentro and Zest for Life. 7-y-o Shalimar Fromentro, owned by Jane Williams and trained Nick Williams, finished 5th in the Crystal Cup race at Craon on September 8th.

I am far from understanding what has been going on in trotting in the Czech Republic.
In the last two seasons there have been very few race meetings. Last weekend, a meeting was announced at a brand-new racecourse at Bravantice, not far south of Ostrava.

Some website sketches indicate that our type of horseracing might be held at Bravantice.

Czech trainers will be stretched this weekend, with a more than usually difficult decision on where to go in person, and where to send a trusted assistant trainer. The problem of finding a good rider, or any rider at all, has been acute.
Czech jockey Eliska Kubinova has had a lot of success in the last two years, riding mainly in Oregon State. She did not ride a winner while she was at the school for apprentices at Velka Chuchle, and then disappeared from the radar for a few years. Less than two years ago, the trainer for whom she was work riding put her up on some horses, and straight away she started riding winner after winner at Emerald Downs racecourse, in Portland, Oregon. Now aged 24, she has given an interview to Female Jockeys website.
