I remember that I won in both 阪神牝馬S and NZT last year just after arriving in Germany.
Moreover, I'm most compatible with 桜花賞, which will be held tomorrow.
Considering these facts, I believe that I will be able to stop this terrible consecutive defeats this weekend.
Life in Germany
Horse racing in Mannheim
I went to watch horse racing in Mannheim, which is the town next to Heidelberg.
The racecourse is 15km away from my apartment and I went there by bicycle.
I regretted this decision because it was windy and cold.
In addition, there were nothing to see while driving my bicycle and the view was so boring.
Before arriving at the racecourse, I was so exhausted.
A race started as soon as I entered the racecourse.
This was a nice opportunity to use my GoPro.
The atmosphere was almost the same as Japan.
Everyone was excited.
The course was smaller than Japan and the maximum number of horses seemed to be 8.
Of course, it had a paddock.
While walking around, I studied how to bet.
In the same way as racecourses in Japan, we needed to prepare a mark sheet.
However, there were no machine which could read automaticcaly a mark sheet.
I needed to show it to a staff and pay money to her.
As my first attempt, I wanted to bet as small money as possible.
I submitted a marksheet where €1 was marked and the staff said "○%×$☆♭#▲！※ zwei euro ○%×$☆♭#▲！※."
I couldn't understand her German language, but I guessed she meant the minimum bet was €2.
After paying €2, I could finally get my betting ticket.
As you expect, I lost in all races.
The only good point was that the cycling was a nice excersise.
Prediction
阪神牝馬ステークス（GII、阪神、芝1600m）
Favorite : ⑫Magic Castle (5th popular)
・It is lucky that her handicap is lighter even though she got the 2nd place in this race last year.
・She is not so popular this time due to her recent defeats, but it is a chance to get high dividend from my point of view.
・I think 5 more popular horses will occupy higher ranks in this race. Therefore, I decided to buy betting tickets consisting of them. A type of ticket is trifecta. I predict my favorite horse ⑫Magic Castle will win. As candidates for the 2nd or 3rd place, I selected ②Andvaranaut with Fukunaga-san and ③Des Ailes with Kawada-dan. In addition, other popular horses ⑤Akaitorino Musume and ⑨Geraldina are also candidate for the 3rd place.
Betting ticket
Total : ￥1,000
ニュージーランドトロフィー（GII、中山、芝1600m）
Favorite : ②Teegarden (2nd popular)
・There is no outstanding horse in this race. In other words, all horses have a chance to win or get a higher rank.
・I would like to select horses in terms of jockeys because it is difficult to compare strength of a horse itself. I prefer foreign jockeys, Lemaire-san and Demuro-san. To tell the truth, this is my first time this year to select a horse which Lemaire-san rides as my favorite.
・I bought a quinella ticket composed of ②Teegarden (Lemaire-san) and ⑩Derma Gremlin (Demuro-san).
