Godolphin’s world-class star, Ripples Romance, under trainer Charlie Appleby, returns to Cologne today with the ambition of scoring his second win in the Group 1 2400m turf race, Price von Europa.
The son of the stallion “Dubai” achieved the title of the most prominent race in Cologne during an exceptional season in 2022 during which he did not suffer any losses, as he achieved remarkable victories in the world’s highest-ranked (Group 1) races, including his victory in Germany in the title of the “Gross-Price von Berlin” race, in addition to his coronation with the prestigious American “Breeders’ Cup Turf” title.
Rebels Romance had a patchy 2023 season before returning to his best this year, winning the Emir of Qatar Sword in February, followed in March by the Dubai Sheema Classic for Group 1 horses on Dubai World Cup night, and then the Champions & Shatter Cup for Group 1 horses in Hong Kong. Godolphin trainer Charlie Appleby commented on Rebels Romance’s recent preparations, saying in press statements: “Rebels Romance is ready and in excellent condition.”
