Dresden Race 1

7 1/2f Stakes

Prize Money: $16,393

SUCH A ROYAL (2) Tidy run when 3rd last run at Hamburg Horn and will try to take advantage of the draw. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. No surprise to see a win. GRANDE MERCI (4) Right up there last run at Bad Harzburg. Expecting to settle positively. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Up to these. HARMONIA (5) Debutant 3yo by Mokarris for Stefan Richter. Large claim helps. Betting is the best guide. RITTER RUNKEL (1) Only fair when 6th last time at this venue. Capable of a strong comeback and promising career start. Going well this campaign. Goes very close.
