Soldier Hollow son SHANJO finishes great fourth in G1 German Derby 
Today's 148th running of the most important classic race of the year, the German Derby, saw owner Horst Pudwill's SHANJO finish the race with an excellent fourth place.

Shanjo entered the race as a longshot with Ioritz Mendizabal aboard as one of trainer Markus Klug's seven runners, and he ran a superb race stirring hope for more to come in the near future. While the colt did not enjoy a trouble-free trip over the 2400 m, he developed impressive speed entering the stretch coming from all the way in the back of the field. In the end, he passed the wire only slightly more than two lengths behind the winner on heavy going.

An excellent fourth place in a select field of 18 is a great performance in the €650,000 G1 highlight of the year for the colt, who was bred by Hubert Hasler out of the Monsun-mare Shivara.
