Leipzig Race 1 - Preis Der Leipziger Messe
POGI (5) appeals as a key chance after finishing 4th at Dusseldorf over 2100m, beaten 2.35L, and has only had two career starts. DOMADOR (2) brings some depth with a 3rd at Halle over 1750m four runs back and has placed at this track and trip, though was well beaten last start. NORDWIND (3) was 3rd at Halle over 1750m last August and 4th at Munich over 1600m in September, but has been unplaced since. FAITH OF EMPIRES (4) and KELLY'S SWEETIE (7) have struggled to threaten in recent runs. MAGICAL MEMORY (8) is lightly raced but has finished well back in both starts. Pogi (5) and Domador (2) look the most likely to feature based on recent efforts.

First-up after a 145-day break, last seen finishing 5th of 10 at Dresden over 2000m on soft going, beaten 14L with 51.5kg at $7. Has placed once in two runs at this track but remains a maiden after 10 starts. Steps up 4kg in weight and drops 150m in trip. Can improve fresh but needs to lift on exposed form.

First-up after 208 days. Last start finished 8th of 8 at Dusseldorf over 1700m on 5 Oct, beaten 5.3L on soft going at $81 behind Miss Hollywood. Previous run was 7th of 7 at the same track and also well beaten. Needs to show improvement but can take benefit from the break.
