Last time in Straubing, Eberhard Truppo came from a layoff and raced really well. Today he’s one of the favorites to win the third race, but he meets very tough opponents. Straubing presents seven races on Monday and each one is very interesting.
Race 1: Warm-up in Straubing – a race for the beginners. Ontaria was at her best last time and deserves a victory. At home, she works very well. Donna des Bois has to avoid mistakes – her stable ,however, is in great shape. Glory CG looked very nice in her qualifier. Also Negresco has to be followed.
Our pick:
(7) Ontaria – (5) Donna des Bois – (2) Glory CG – (3) Negresco
Race 2: A widely open race for amateurs. Lucky Luciano had a lot of energy left last time and had a very late opening. He would have beaten Zazu Diamant and will take revenge today. Lorette As is a very good mare who can also win. Her driver makes her very interesting. Excellent Grandcru galopped after his circular start, was 5th nevertheless. Dezaria Blitz is a very fast horse who can cause suprises.
Our pick:
(5) Lucky Luciano – (10) Zazu Diamant – (6) Lorette As – (12) Excellent Grandcru
Race 3: Eberhard Truppo was very good after a break and will be even better today. But this race is not so easy. Happy Jack convincend a lot in Vienna and won very easily. If Marilyn Boko stays calm, she’s really good for this class. Augustiner doesn’t mind this number, he already drew the second line last time.
Our pick:
(5) Marilyn Boko – (8) Happy Jack – (2) Eberhard Truppo – (10) Augustiner
Race 4: A very nice competition. Far West met tough horses and was very strong. Flash Gordon loves this track and is very good when he’s at his best. Zucchero convinced a lot. Casino Royale can also be the winner with the right trip.
Our pick:
(6) Flash Gordon – (7) Far West – (4) Casino Royale – (9) Zucchero
Race 5: Crema di Nocci loves Martin Geinender and Martin Geineder loves Crema di Nocci. But this time, this couple will find it very hard to win because of Ocean Eyes. He was splendid in his comeback race and even suprised his trainer. Katrionalemalerocks likes her driver. Lennarth is consistent and good. Velten Chicago is possible with the right trip.
Our pick:
(7) Ocean Eyes – (4) Crema di Nocci – (8) Velten Chicago – (3) Lennarth
Race 6: If Unfinished Business avoids mistakes, she’s clearly the best horse. But every now and then she’s not so easy. Brunhild Eck showed good form. Palina Bo is better than the latest results show. Also Utiliy Man is possible.
Our pick:
(1)Unfinished Business – (4) Brunhild Eck – (3) Palina Bo – (2) Utility Man
Race 7: Again a race with a very good horse: Foxtrot Jet is a banker here and can win easily. Jimbo des Iles raced well several times without winning. Kador du Choquel fought hard for victory. Ideolog deceived, but the race before was very strong.
Our pick:
(8) Foxtrot Jet – (6) Jimbo des Iles – (2) Kador du Choquel – (4) Ideolog
