The Dr. Busch-Memorial is a Group 3 flat horse race in Germany open to three-year-old thoroughbreds. It is run over a distance of 1,700 metres (1 mile 99 yards) at Krefeld in April.
History
The event used to be held at Hoppegarten, and it was originally known as the Preis von Dahlwitz. It was transferred to Krefeld in 1950, and from this point it was called the Paul Döring-Rennen. It was subsequently renamed in memory of Max Busch, a former president of Krefeld Racecourse.
For a period the Dr. Busch-Memorial was contested over 1,650 metres. It was extended to 1,700 metres in 1968.
The Dr. Busch-Memorial was given Group 3 status in 1994. That year's edition was run over 1,600 metres at Cologne. It was run over the same distance at Hoppegarten in 1997. It was relegated to Listed level and cut to 1,400 metres in 1998.
The race reverted to 1,700 metres in 1999. It was promoted back to Group 3 in 2000.
