Prague is one of Europe's most fashionable cities, an historic baroque monument to Bohemia's past, equally comparable to Florence, Venice and Rome for the majesty of its noble buildings, squares and cobbled streets.
THE VELKA PARDUBICKA STEEPLECHASE
As a true test of stamina, equine ability and horsemanship THE VELKA PARDUBICKA, run over 4m21/2f and 31 varying obstacles over a mix of grass and light plough, ranks of equal importance in steeplechasing's role of honour to our own Grand National.
Pardubicka legend Josef Vana, still riding at the age of 58, completed a hat-trick on Tiumen who had his third successive win in this gruelling race. Sixteen, also trained by Vana, led for much of the race and came home half a length behind the winner with Valldemoso in third place. The rest of the field was well beaten with Flambion coming in fourth, 12 lengths away.
