Black-Type Analysis: Two-Year-Olds Take Centre Stage at Baden-Baden

[Wandering Eyes]

Wednesday, Baden-Baden, Germany, post time: 13:11, 152ND RENATE & ALBRECHT WOESTE – ZUKUNFTS-RENNEN-G3, €55,000, 2yo, 7fT

Field: Advantage (Ger) (Pomellato {Ger}), Commander's Intent (Fr) (Victor Ludorum {GB}), Gostam (Ger) (Saxon Warrior {Jpn}), Nitaro (GB) (Oasis Dream {GB}), Perito (Ger) (Time Test {GB}), Seguro (Ger) (Romanised {Ire}), Voitton (Ger) (Best Solution {Ire}), Zuender (Ger) (Amaron {GB}).

TDN Verdict: Baden-Baden's 'Grosse Woche' continues with the first of Germany's four pattern-race contests for juveniles. Hella Sauer two-for-two trainee Zuender sets the standard and makes his black-type debut coming back off wide-margin wins here in May and at Munich last month. Gostam defeated previous winner Seguro by four lengths over this trip at Munich in his only start to date and holds solid claims. So does the undefeated-in-two Voitton, who outpointed Henk Grewe stablemate Perito at Cologne last month. Nitaro accounted for subsequent winner Rue Michel Ange in his Cologne debut last month and should not be discounted. Victorious Racing's Doncaster nursery winner Commander's Intent ships in for the George Scott stable, while Slovakian challenger Advantage, who ran third over six furlongs at Bratislava in both prior starts, adds a touch of spice to the international flavour.
