Gran Premio for Kolorado

25.9.2006: Kolorado (POL) again the fastest in Merano

In the biggest hurdle race held at the racetrack in Merano, Italy, the Gran Premio Merano Forst, a Grade 1 race for four-year-olds and older over 5 000 m and with a purse of EUR 320 000 our stables had the two fastest horses from the previous years – the winner two years ago, Masini (POL), with Dirk Fuhrmann aboard, and last year’s winner Kolorado (POL) with Paddy Apsell riding. However, he was later disqualified for leaving the course. Both horses were at the front during the race, but Kolorado (POL) proved strongest at the end, beating two other horses trained in the Czech Republic - Pesso and Bejrut. Masini (POL) finished fifth. Our other horses also performed well. Magnus’s son Diktys (CZE) began the afternoon with a close victory with Irish jockey Paddy Aspell in the Premio Renon, a hurdle race for three-year-olds. Theoden (POL) with Paddy Aspell again aboard then took third in the final race, the Corsa Siepi dei 4 anni over 3 500 m (Gr. 3).
