Hanover's €52,000 auction race turned out to be a success story for SOLDIER HOLLOW progeny today. Although the superior winner from the Grewe quarters was not to be stopped, offspring by our champion sire shone with a great second and third place finish in the 1750 m challenge for three-year-olds. Wiedingen-bred PROPOLIA (Stall Challenger/Werner Glanz) out of our PRETTY SMART noted a strong second place with Maxim Pecheur aboard ahead KÖNIG PLATON (Stall Lucky Owners/Jens Hirschberger), who had Wladimir Panov in the saddle. |
