Tough test for the ladies in the Schwarzgold race

Cologne, Sunday, 08 May: This Sunday, the racecourse in Cologne will once again present a top highlight and "warm-up" for the 1,000 Guineas, the Karin Baroness von Ullmann-Schwarzgold race (Group III, 55,000 euros, 1,600 m).

The line-up of this race for three-year-old horse ladies, in which there is 10,000 euros to be won in the triple bet, could hardly be better. Mountaha (A. Starke) was successful in 2021 and is Markus Klug`s stable jockey of choice. Quarantini (A. de Vries) could also end up far ahead after the impression of the Düsseldorf victory. But they will meet strong opponents who already performed strongly in last year`s Winter Queen, like Rondina (J. Mitchell), Barina (B. Murzabayev) or Lacuna (A. Sanna). From France comes the fresh winner Chaussons Roses (S. Planque). Marco Casamento, the rider of La Estrellita, has just returned to Germany from Qatar.

The four-horse bet with a guaranteed payout of 12,500 Euros will be offered in the 4th race (Equalisation IV, 1,850 m) and with 10,000 Euros in the 7th race (Equalisation IV, 1,600 m).
