Capital hopes in Diana trial run

Hoppegarten, Sunday, 28 May: This Sunday at Whitsun also promises to be a highlight day at the park track outside Berlin in Hoppegarten, because with the Diana Trial (Group III, 55,000 Euros, 2,000 m) a warm-up for the classic for the Prize of Diana beckons.

Trainer Markus Klug is very well prepared with Kassada (A. Starke) from Röttgen, who has been very impressive lately. She could emulate last year`s winner Wagnis for the same interests and also take on an interesting guest mare, because the references of Crackovia (J. Mitchell) from the English stable of Mark Johnston are excellent. Evina (M. Seidl) showed her class last year as Premio Dormello runner-up. Sweet Diana (E. Pedroza) landed her debut victory here last year.

The supporting programme with eight competitions between 2 and 6 p.m. is also impressive. In the Mile Equalisation I, Way To Dubai (E. Pedroza) could now be in the lead again, but he has to beat, among others, Atoso (L.-M. Engels), who has hardly been captured yet. 10,000 Euros each are offered as a guaranteed payout in the 5th race (Equalisation IV, 1,600 m) and in the 8th race (Equalisation III, 1,800 m).
