Dusseldorf Race 2 - 1M 2 1/2F Stakes
Lucky Lion colt BRAVE LION (2) debuted with a 2.5L fourth contesting a 2400m event at Hannover in June last year. Selected to break through for his first win returning from an absence. ROGUE IDENTITY (1) lost out by 1.25L in placing second to a subsequent winner in a 2212m handicap on the AW at Southwell at the end of January. Danger to all debuting for a new trainer. POGI (4) enters calculations on his first start since debuting with a fourth over 2200m at this venue a year ago. Five race maiden DAMARA (8) faded in finishing 17L seventh over 1600m at Cologne. Notable contender stepping up in distance.
