Hammer-Hansen) and Derby winner Sammarco (A. de Vries) disappointed as strongly bet horses. Sisfahan (L. Delozier) also already won the Derby (2021). And Aff un zo (A.

Between 10:50 a.m. and 4:50 p.m., a total of twelve races are on the card, with an Equalisation I over 2,200 metres standing out. Several strongly improved horses will be competing here, such as Akua`rius (A. de Vries), Only the Brave (K. Phillip) or Autumn (S.
