Hoppegarten, Sunday, 09 April: Easter Sunday is all about the first racing day in 2023 in Berlin-Hoppegarten in Galopp-Deutschland. And the ten races between 11:20 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., of which classes 1 to 5 will also be shown in France, have a lot to offer. For there are two list races.
In the Prize of Gestüt Lünzen & Friends (25,000 Euros, 1,600 m) the mares are challenged. The match seems to be very open. Stella (A. Starke) does not need to hide from any opponent. The biggest threat is probably the Godolphin mare Nano Eagle (P. Bazire) from the dreaded Pantall quarter.
Grand Prix horses will do the honours in the Prize of Dahlwitz (25,000 Euros, 2,000 m). First and foremost is Best of Lips (M. Seidl), who was placed in many top events in 2022 and may even be able to improve on his second place from last year.
Sunday will also see the 2023 starting shot for the "7 wins!" bet in races 4 to 10. The four-horse bet with a guaranteed payout of 11,111 Euros each is tempting in the 6th race (Equalisation II, 2,000 m) and in the 9th race (Equalisation III, 1,600 m). And finally, in the 10th race (Equalisation IV, 2,200 m) with 16 horses, a triple bet guarantee of 6,666 Euros (with a jackpot of 2,672.67 Euros) is offered.
