Jozef Bojko back again

Krefeld, Saturday, June 11: A seven-race program takes place today on the oval at Krefeld. In the introductory Maiden race (1st race/14.00/3,500 Euro/1700 m) Andrasch Starke could strike with Shirazi. The successful jockey was still in the USA the day before with Gestüt Ittlingens Loft and contested the Gold Cup, which counts as Group 2.

In third place, Jozef Bojko is back in action after a lengthy injury break. His chance is called Russian Candy, who after a promising third place in Hanover is one of the closest favorites. The untested Dalina (Bauyrzhan Murzabayev) from Ammerland Stud, Delia (Leon Wolff), who is leaving with a favorable mark, and Lina (Alexander Pietsch), who attracted attention when taking honors in Cologne, are other contenders with good chances.

The subsequent age-weight race (4th race/15.35/6,000 Euro/1300 m) could be decided by Schützenprinz (Adrie de Vries), who recently showed up in Mülheim, but Wellenbrecher (Andrasch Starke) and Run Form Me (Marco Casamento) are also speculating on the front places.

In the equalizer 3 (6th race/16:40/7,000 euros/2050 m), the path to victory leads through the immensely in-form Mister Wonderful (Miguel Lopez). Lady Charlotte (Leon Wolff) and Sovereign State (Sean Byrne) are favorably accommodated with their allowance riders and, like Petit Marin (Bauyrzhan Murzabayev) and Dörthe (Marco Casamento), who are coming in with fresh wins, will not leave the field to the White protégé without a fight.
