The '''Union-Rennen''' is a [[Conditions races|Group 2]] [[Flat racing|flat]] [[Horse racing|horse race]] in [[Germany]] open to three-year-old [[thoroughbred]]s. It is run at [[Cologne-Weidenpesch Racecourse|Cologne]] over a distance of 2,200 metres (about 1 mile and 3 furlongs), and it is scheduled to take place each year in June.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The event was established in 1834, and it was originally held at [[Tempelhof]] on the site of what became [[Berlin Tempelhof Airport]]. It was initially contested over 2,400 metres, and it was extended to 2,800 metres in 1837.<br />
<br />
The race was transferred to [[Hoppegarten]] in 1868, and it was cut to 2,200 metres in 1888. It was staged at [[Grunewald (locality)|Grunewald]] for a short period after World War I, and it returned to Hoppegarten during the 1920s. It was abandoned in 1945 and 1946, and it moved to Cologne in 1947.<br />
<br />
The Union-Rennen serves as a trial for the [[Deutsches Derby]], and many horses have won both races. The first was Schwindler, a joint winner of the Derby in 1875. The most recent was [[Sea The Moon]] in 2014.<br />
<br />
With its {{Ordinal|{{#expr:{{CURRENTYEAR}}-1835}}}} running in {{CURRENTYEAR}}, the Union-Rennen is Germany's oldest surviving horse race.<br />
