Despite having to jump up an entire handicap class, he moved into the gates as the clear favorite — and he didn’t disappoint his fans. Soldier Hollow’s Naval was victorious in the Preis von Auto Kurt, a level 2 handicap over 1,300 meters at Munich racetrack today. Hugging the rails in the back of the field for long, Jockey Adrie de Vries took the five-year-old colt to a slalom through the opponents down he stretch to record a confident win by a length at the wire. Naval is in training with Yasmin Almenräder in Mülheim for Gestüt Niederrhein. |
