Wandering Eyes

Last year's Deutsches Derby winner Fantastic Moon (Ger) will stand at Gestut Ebbesloh next season, Nadine Siepmann, co-founder of ownership syndicate Liberty Racing, announced on Sunday. The son of Sea The Moon (Ger) will retire following his appearance in the G1 Japan Cup at Tokyo on Sunday, November 24. Fantastic Moon was bred by Philipp and Marion Stauffenberg from the Jukebox Jury (Ire) mare Frangipani (Ger). He was bought by Liberty Racing for €49,000 at the BBAG September Yearling Sale and has subsequently won seven of his 14 starts for trainer Sarah Steinberg. Unbeaten in two starts as a two-year-old, notably winning the G3 Preis der Winterfavoriten, Fantastic Moon also won the G3 Derby Trial and G2 Prix Niel in a Classic campaign headlined by his emphatic success in the Deutsches Derby at Hamburg. This year he filled the runner-up spot in the G1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis – Bayerisches Zuchtrennen for the second consecutive year, before doubling his tally at the top level with victory in the Grosser Preis von Baden. He was last seen finishing ninth in the G1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp. In a statement, Siepman said, “Germany's best racehorse Fantastic Moon will retire to stud at Ebbesloh Stud following his engagement in the Japan Cup (G1). The colt will travel to Tokyo on November 13 to compete against renowned international rivals on November 24 and subsequently take up stud duty following his return. “The four-year-old Sea The Moon son became a Derby winner and six-time Group winner for the syndicate Liberty Racing 2021. He was unbeaten as a group winner as a two-year-old and was 3YO Champion, Derby winner and Horse of the Year 2023. As a four-year-old, he documented his class and toughness with two group wins and the second G1 win in the Grosser Preis von Baden. “Fantastic Moon remains the property of Liberty Racing 2021 and will be the first Sea the Moon son to stand stud in Germany.” Fantastic Moon is one of two runners from three runners out of Frangipani, a winning half-sister to G3 Sveaas Minnelop victor Fearless Hunter (Ger) (Alhaarth {Ire}) and Listed Arnfinn Lund Minnelop third Fil Rouge (Ger) (Lord Of England {Ger}). His second dam Firedance (Ger) (Lomitas {GB}) is a half-sister to G3 Rockfel Stakes victrix Germane (GB) (Distant Relative [Ire}) and the dual stakes-winning G3 Preis der Deutschen Einheit runner-up Fabriano (GB) (Shardari {Ire}). Germane, in turn, is the dam of stakes-winning GI Hollywood Derby third Lucky Chappy (Ire) (High Chaparral {Ire}) and Listed Kolner Stuten Meile runner-up Granted (Fr) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}). A fee for Fantastic Moon in his first season at Gestut Ebbesloh is yet to be announced.

Rising star Richard Stomper (NZ) (El Roca) may have earned himself a shot at the Gr.3 TAB Mile (1600m) during New Zealand Cup Week after claiming another impressive victory at Ashburton on Sunday. Richard Stomper has been patiently handled by trainer Stephanie Faulkner, with a successful four-year-old season highlighted by a win in one of the ODT Southern Qualifier races in January. A slight ligament injury ruled Richard Stomper out of contesting the ODT Southern Mile Final (1600m) in March, but the gelding has come back bigger and stronger this campaign, finishing boldly over 1200m when resuming, before winning over the mile at Ashburton last month. Stepping up to open company on Sunday, Richard Stomper was rated a $5.20 hope behind well-performed mares Ears Back ($2.80) and Epee Beel ($3.40). Ears Back swiftly skipped to the lead from her wide draw, being left to control the pace ahead of Deep Beauty. Richard Stomper sat inside of his stablemate Green Luck in the one-one under Brandon May, tracking the leaders before coming to the centre of the track on straightening. Ears Back set a task for the gelding and held on bravely, but Richard Stomper bounded over the top in the final strides to win by a neck. Timaru-based Faulkner had been quietly confident coming into the race and was duly rewarded. “I knew he would be the one to beat today, I don’t like being too confident but he’d come through his last win extra well and he’s a lovely forward-going horse,” she said. “He’s still doing a few things wrong, Brandon said he was jumping bare patches on the track in the race and he still isn’t totally focussed. When Lyn’s horse (Deep Beauty) came around him, he got on the job and knew he was in a race. “He had a ligament injury before the Southern Mile, we thought he would be a really good chance in that but he had a slight issue so we gave him a reasonable spell. “I just kept him at home, looked after him through the winter and worked him up quietly. It wasn’t until I looked at a photo of when he came back in last year that I realised how much he’s matured since then, he’s a big horse. He’s just continued to strengthen each month. “He’s pretty exciting.” Cup Week will commence this Saturday at Riccarton Park and Faulkner had initially intended to start Richard Stomper on the final day, but a change of plans may be in order. “Originally, we were going to take him to the 75 mile on the last day, but his owner is a very keen man and he would like to pay a late nomination for the TAB Mile,” she said. “It’s all going to depend on the points, he may not have enough to get in because we’ll be sitting down around the 20-21 mark I think. I guess we’ll find out in the next day or two, but that’s the plan. “Brandon said he’ll be better in stronger company, because he’ll have to concentrate the whole way.” Bred by Westbury Stud owner Gerry Harvey, Richard Stomper was initially trained in his first two starts by Mark Walker, before being sold to part-owner Richard Preston for just $900 through a gavelhouse.com auction in February 2023. The five-year-old has subsequently earned just shy of $90,000 in stakes, with four wins and five minor placings from his 16 starts. Faulkner was also pleased with the efforts of Group Three winner Green Luck (Street Cry), who stuck on well under the top-weight to finish fifth. “He’s just at that stage where he’s a little bit one-paced over a mile,” she said. “The Open 2000m on the middle day of Cup Week will be his target, hopefully with Amber (Riddell, apprentice jockey) on to get the weight relief. She’s down to three kilos (claim) after today which is exciting for her, she’s a good young rider coming through the ranks.” View the full article

Our on top selection for the 2024 Melbourne Cup is Zardozi. The James Cummings-trained mare should have won the Metropolitan three runs back when nosed out of it by Land Legend, and then had plenty of excuses when finishing fourth in the Caulfield Cup. She seemingly didn’t handle Caulfield and copped an almighty bump just as she building through her gears. James Cummings has undertaken his grandfather Bart’s theory in racing Zardozi on a three-day backup after an eye-catching run in the Group 1 Empire Rose Stakes (1600m). She will be rock-hard fit and Sydney Cup-winning hoop Andrea Atzeni sticking on board will be given every chance in running from a midfield spot from barrier four. If Zardozi brings her best, she is the one to beat.
