One after another the horses came out on the track for the obigatory parade. After some warmup the horses lined up behind the car as it began to move down the track.
Happy Dribbler tried its best to keep the lead but finally had to give in to Le Poignard that came steaming ahead.
There were no mayor changes in the field at the 500m mark. Lying Starlight was disturbed and galoped 10 m. A bird flew just in front of Flickering Wish who started to galop and lost 50 m.
Lützen Larockma was in great shape so far and looked happy in the lead.
