Money, money, money in Straubing

There are a lot of possibilities to earn money in Straubing. The race track in Bavaria presents eight races – including several jackpots. Very good horses are back in competition and there are some really solid favourites.

Race 1:
Big M Eck (Marisa Bock) is supposed to go to the Austrian derby. He should be improved by the last race. Gri Barack’s (Herbert Tuscher) first start was very exciting. Also Kian (Robert Pletschacher) was able to impress. Lightnight (Tanja Thaler) galopped in the home stretch, she would have endet third or fourth. Glory CG ist very fast behind the gate.

Our pick:
Gri Barack – (4) Big M Eck – (2) Kian - (1) Lightnight

Race 2:
A very nice ridden race. Iamthewhoonewhoknocks (Melanie Fleschhut) was able to beat Neuf du Pape (Ronja Walter). But Neuf du Pape will certainly be more dangerous today because it’s his second start in a ridden race now. With this nice starting position he can take revenge. Jasmine Dragon and Höwings be my Lady can cause surprises.

Our pick:
Neuf du Pape – (5) Iamtheonewhoknocks – (6) Jasmine Dragon

Race 3:
Very nice Race for amateurs. Postillon (Peter Platzer) was very strong in his comeback race. He can do it tough. Idefix (Stefan Hiendlmeier) met good horses and did allright. Flash Gordon (Marie Lindinger) loves this track and is always very strong here. Remus Eck (Julia Wiesner) surprised during the winter.

Our pick:
(3) Postillon – (4) Idefix – (7) Flash Gordon – (5) Remus Eck

Race 4:
It’s worth while to play a Superfecta – there’s a jackpot. Excellent Grandcru (Benjamin Priller) finds a very nice task here. Euritmico Jet (Martin Geineder) was very good in his qualifier – he has to avoid mistakes though. Jivago du Gers (Julia Wiesner) did very well in Munich. Speedy Ela Su (Anton Altmann) will go for the lead. Luna Barosso (Christian Ferstl) surprised. Also Jerry Box (Ferdinand Veit) and Chuppa Chups (Marie Lindinger) can succeed.

Our pick:
(7) Excellent Grandcru – (5) Euritmico Jet – (9) Luna Barosso – (3) Jivago du Gers

Race 5:
Pay attention to the jackpot in the Trifecta! Aconcagua (Rudi Haller) did very well last year and seems to be the best horse here. Comeback-race though. Negresco (Marisa Bock) is very strong and won an easier race in Munich. Global Fairplay (Christoph Fischer) showed a very fast race last time. Rozmarin (Georg Bachmeier) needs some racing luck but is a very good horse. Great Darkness Fire (Robert Pletschacher) unfortunately is very complicated.

Our pick:
(6) Aconcagua – (5) Negresco – (3) Global Fair Play – (7) Rozmarin

Race 6:
Sokrates (Marcus Gramüller) clearly is the best horse here. However, he comes from a layoff and might need this race. If Jimbo des Iles (Andreas Geineder) stays calm, he is very talented and he’s our pick here. Ontaria (Marisa Bock) did very well in Italy.

Our pick:
(4) Jimbo des Iles – (6) Sokrates – (3) Ontaria – (5) Ivoire de Larré

Race 7:
There’s a banker in the seventh race: Dafna (Marie Lindinger). The mare was very excting in Mönchengladbach, driven by the German champion Michael Nimczyk. She won very easily. Chantielle (Martin Geineder) convinced in Italy but deceived afterwards in Germany, galopping two times. Evita del Ronco (Marion Dinzinger) finds a nice task here.

Our pick:
(5) Dafna – (3) Chantielle – (8) Evita del Ronco – (4) Hanke Palace Green

Race 8:
A very good final race. And there’s again a jackpot in the Trifecta! See You (Rudi Haller) is an excellent horse. It’s his seasonal debut but he showed that he is ready in his qualifier. Lambo Fortuna (Christoph Fischer) fought hard for victory, he was only closely beaten. Billy Kimber (Peter Platzer) will certainly go for the lead and can lead this for a very long wile. Henri de Jautais (Robert Pletschacher) and Crema di Nocci (Andreas Geineder) can also earn money.

Our pick:
(4) See You – (7) Lambo Fortuna – (1) Billy Kimber – (5) Henri de Jautais
