Season premiere in the cathedral city with class short distance runners

Cologne, Monday, 10 April: Easter Monday has always been marked by the start of the season in Cologne, and this time they are even the sole organisers. The best omens, therefore, for the racing day of the 1.FC Köln. A total of nine races will be held from 2 p.m. onwards, with the Sauren Dachfonds race (Listed race, 25,000 euros, 1,300 m) being a particular focus.

The number one German horse seems to be Waldersee (E. Pedroza), who snapped in 2022 at the first and last start of the season at List level. But the many sprinters, also from abroad, will demand a lot from him. Good Eye (A. Starke) from Sweden and the Hoppegarten guest Tarkhan (D. Sabatbekov) are among them.

The Equalisation II over 1,600 metres also knows how to please. Honore Daumier (R. Weber) and Camiro (M. Pecheur) are only two of the possibilities. 15,000 Euros are on offer for the foursome bet of the 5th race (Equalisation III, 1,850 metres) and 12,500 Euros as a guarantee for the foursome bet of the 8th race (Equalisation IV, 1,850 metres).
