Kincsem Park solid mid-week program

An unusual Kincsem Park Wednesday card included three solid trotting events. In the Nemecsek DIJ (purse 500,000€, 1800 meters autostart, seven starters) the impressive even-money favorite Steet Genius (4m Uncle Lasse-Dats Veronica-Credit Winner) scored in 1.15.6kr with a first over journey engineered by reinsman Imre Fazekas.

Bernadett Balogh trains this five-time winner in eight 2023 starts, that Prolongo III owns. Creatine (5g Maharajah-Wale-Center Field) was a game second at 12.2/1 with trainer Tibor Hajnal driving, Aerodynamics (6g Uncle Lasse-Centerline-Scarlet Knight) was third with Adrien Burany driving for the Balogh/Prolongo III team.

In the Miki Mano DIJ (purse 500,000€, 2000 meters distance handicap) the 2.6/1 odds Drina TIM (4F Classic Photo-Ottawa SAS-Abano As) scored I .20.4kr reined by Adrien Burany for trainer Imre Fazekas. This classy filly won for the fourth time in 2023 in only five starts. She was bred in Serbia by Milan Tisma who remains part owner. Ekszer K (3f Calypso Capar-Medalia-Baltic Bet) was second at 20/1 with Nikolett Gyolai driving. Third home was 9/1 Elegans Holgy (3f Maximus Lindy-Elegant Lady-Mill H) reined by Tamas Tanczer.

The Csinom Palko DIJ (purse 700,000€, 1800 meters autostart, 11 starters) was the feature race this day and 3.8/1 Bobby Fischer (6g Miguel Duhamel-Izzy Star-Vallery Guardian) returned to last year’s form with a 1.15.8kr timed victory. Balazs Juhasz reined and trains this 14-time career winner in 46 starts. This was his second 2023 win in nine appearances. Devoted (4m Maharajah-Wale-Center Field) was second for trainer/driver Emil Csordas at 3.8/1 odds and 23/1 outsider Zlatan LIW (8g Miguel Duhamel-Jeanne Sun-Grundy’s Ebony) was third for pilot Arpad Lakatos.
