Riwetta won in Latina Stakes

Although in tropical weather, still in front of a solid visit, the Summer raceday took place in Chuchle Arena Prague on Sunday, July 9. The 44th Latina Stakes (Class A, 11f, 3yo f, 135 ths CZK), the main trial race for the Czech Oaks (it will be run in Carlsbad on August, 6), was the highlight of the schedule. In the fast-paced race, the favorites did not succeed in the end, and Riwetta with jockey Adam Florian won this race.

The winner of the Slovak 1000 Guineas Feschanda and the winner of two smaller spring races Maxienne were the favourites, but neither of them was among the top five at the finish line. After a battle for the head in a good time of 2:19.68, the chestnut filly of DS GAUDIUM (Maxienne's stablemate) and trainer Helena Vocásková Riwetta won under jockey Adam Florian, in only the third race in her career Coletka finished second, half-sister to Horse of the Year 2022 Gasparini Garmona placed third by another length and a quarter.

For the fourth of last year's Winter Queen Stakes Riwetta, it was the second lifetime win, the first one in Prague and the first one in a Class A race, jockey Adam Florian, winner of this year's Czech 2000 Guineas, reached his twelfth Class A win, five-time trainer-champion Helena Vocásková won in the Latina Stakes for the third time.

Jockey Jan Verner won twice in the other races of the day, the 2020 champion followed up on Thursday's two wins from Leipzig and scored his 53rd career double.
