German horse racing obviously has a new dream team in WAI KEY STAR and Sibylle Vogt, and we are admittedly somewhat emotional about it. The Wiedingen-bred seven-year-old 2016 Derby fourth presented himself in fighting spirit in the 2000m G3 65th edition of the Preis der Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe at Baden-Baden recording the fourth group win of his career thanks to a fulminant final attack. And this even though the colt and his partner at first found no passage in entering the final straight, but once they did, WAI KEY STAR took off like a rocket and fought gamely to secure a tight win at the post.
Our heartfelt congratulations go to Stall Salzburg and trainer Sarah Steinberg who, together with Sibylle Vogt, seems to have found a brilliant recipe to maintain the fun for racing in the veteran WAI KEY STAR. That's called ladies power! |
