Oleander-Rennen

The Oleander-Rennen is a Group 2 flat horse race in Germany open to thoroughbreds aged four years or older. It is run over a distance of 3,200 metres (about 2 miles) at Hoppegarten in May.

History

The event is named after Oleander, a successful German racehorse in the 1920s. It was established in 1972, and the first two runnings were won by Sarto. For a period it held Listed status.

The Oleander-Rennen was promoted to Group 3 level in 1989. It was sponsored by the fashion company Betty Barclay from 1998 to 2009, and during this time it was known as the Betty Barclay-Rennen. It was raised to Group 2 level in 2017.

The race took place at Baden-Baden prior to 2012.
