Big Week from August 27 - September 04, 2022 in Baden-Baden - Iffezheim:
Ladies Day in Iffezheim - T. v. Zastrow Stutenpreis the top highlight
Baden-Baden/Iffezheim, August 31, 2022 (MH). It is the great goal of owners of a promising mare - to increase her value for breeding. This is possible above all in group races, such as the highlight on the penultimate day of the Great Week on Saturday, September 3rd, at the racecourse in Baden-Baden-Iffezheim. The T. v. Zastrow Stutenpreis (Group II, 2,400 m) also offers a prize of 70,000 euros.
Three-year-old and older ladies meet in the highlight of Ladies Day in Iffezheim. The field is teeming with top mares, such as Dr. Christoph Berglar's Amazing Grace, who was only beaten by derby winner and Grand Prix starter Sammarco in the Dallmayr Grand Prix in Munich. Her team engaged Olivier Peslier (49) from France, a star jockey with a worldwide reputation, who is also well known in this country, not only thanks to his two derby victories with Borgia (1997) and Dai Jin (2003).
India 2022 still without defeat
Waldemar Hickst, the Cologne trainer of Amazing Grace, also has Gestüt Ittlingen's India (E. Pedroza), the biggest rising star of recent weeks and months, at the start. Since the Adlerflug-daughter has been in training with him, she has not had to tolerate an opponent in front of her in 2022, winning four races in a row, including the Grand Prix of the state capital Magdeburg and the Dreamgirl Fürstenberg-Rennen, two group tests.
With the Oaks d' Italia winner Nachtrose (B. Murzabayev), who is ridden by Cologne-based coach Peter Schiergen for the Nizza stable of Freiburg-based private banker Jürgen Imm, the Karlshofen-bred Atomic Blonde (C. Lecoeuvre), Gestüt Brümmerhof's Narmada (R. Piechulek) and the Röttgen-bred Well Disposed (A. Starke), there are also four mares who fell short of expectations in the classic Henkel - Preis der Diana in Düsseldorf.
Wackenhut Mercedes Benz Fillies Cup for 25,000 euros
Of course, the other nine races (the first start is at 1:40 p.m.) are also sure to please. It is also the mares' turn in the Wackenhut Mercedes Benz Fillies Cup (Listed race, 25,000 euros, 1,400 m). The race is teeming with interesting guests from France. Iffezheim is represented by Gerald Geisler's outsider Artemia (W. Panov).
Many owners are keeping their fingers crossed for Goldana (R. Piechulek), who belongs to the Junge Besitzervereinigung racing stable. However, Dishina (B. Murzabayev), who, like Derby winner Sammarco, is owned by Gestüt Park Wiedingen, seems to be the first choice from Peter Schiergen's stable.
Trial for the young mares
And in the Etzean Stud Etzean Winterkönigin Trial (10,000 euros, 1,600 m), the mares are also fighting for victory, albeit two-year-old ladies who are to qualify for the Winterkönigin Prize at the Sales & Racing Festival on October 16. These include Bint Al Karama (E. Pedroza), who belongs to Dubai owner Jaber Abdullah and who briefly looked like the winner at her debut in Munich. Gabriele Gaul, the wife of Baden Galopp majority shareholder Peter Gaul, will attack with the novice Elle (B. Murzabayev).
Of course, Baden Galopp will once again be offering attractions for bettors. 20,000 euros will be paid out in the four-horse bet of the 5th race, 10,000 euros can be earned in the 9th race if you predict the first four horses in the correct order.
The program includes nine races. The first start is at 13:40.
