Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted yesterday at 05:34 PM Journalists Share Posted yesterday at 05:34 PM Monday, Cologne, Germany, post time: 16:10, SAUREN DACHFONDS PREIS (GERLING-PREIS)-G2, €70,000, 4yo/up, 12fT Field: Lordano (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}), Alleno (Ire) (Nathaniel {Ire}), Augustus (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}), Duraji (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}), Lion's Head (Ger) (Protectionist {Ger}), Padre Palou (Ger) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}) and Rashford (Fr) (Zarak {Fr}). TDN Verdict: In an unsual move by Dermot Weld, the veteran supremo pitches the inexperienced Leopardstown maiden winner Duraji against some hardened German campaigners. Late to come on to the scene, the son of his late mother Gita's G1 Irish 1,000 Guineas heroine Nightime (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) and full-brother to Ghaiyyath (Ire) has so much latent potential he is sure to keep the domestic brigade guessing here. Last year's winner Lordano is solid but doesn't set a lofty standard, while the 2024 G1 Deutsches Derby third and fourth Augustus and Alleno have done so little for that form subsequently that we can only assume that it was one of the worst renewals of the Hamburg Classic for some time.
