Black-Type Analysis: Eagle Emblem Tackles His Elders at Hamburg

[Wandering Eyes]

Tuesday, Hamburg, Germany, post time: 18:25, GROSSER PREIS VON LOTTO HAMBURG-G3, €55,000, 3yo/up, 10fT

Field: Quest The Moon (Ger) (Sea The Moon {Ger}), Wintertraum (Ger) (Lord Of England {Ger}), Atoso (Ger) (Guiliani {Ire}), Calyx Rose (Ire) (Calyx {GB}), Daydream Express (GB) (Kingman {GB}), Egina (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}), New York City (Ger) (Sea The Moon {Ger}), Eagle Emblem (Ire) (Sea The Moon {Ger}).

TDN Verdict: Christoph Berglar's Tattersalls October Book 2 graduate Eagle Emblem is the lone sophomore on display and gets a crucial nine pounds, and more, allowance from his elders. He was one length adrift of runner-up, and subsequent G1 Deutsches Derby fourth, Path Of Soldier when fourth in Baden-Baden's G3 Derby-Trial at the end of May and brings solid form to the table. Egina was rewarded for her consistency at black-type level with a brace of Listed victories in May and remains undefeated in two starts this term. Atoso annexed this last year but is winless in six outings since, while Wintertraum, Calyx Rose and Daydream Express already have black-type wins in the bag this year. The Sarah Steinberg-trained duo Quest The Moon and New York City complete a wide-open renewal, with Deutsches Derby heroine Nina Baltromei teaming up with the latter. [Sean Cronin].
