Gestut Rottgen Homebred Alsterperle Too Good for Winterkonigin Rivals at Baden-Baden

[Wandering Eyes]

Gestut Rottgen homebred and four-race maiden Alsterperle (Reliable Man), who was last seen running second in the Listed Winterkonigin Trial at Cologne three weeks ago, made the breakthrough with a first win of any kind in Sunday's G3 Carla Kellner Zukunftsrennen Preis der Winterkonigin at Baden-Baden. Last year's renewal was annexed by subsequent G1 Preis der Diana (German Oaks) heroine Nicoreni (Brametot).

Inching forward to stalk the pace in second after the opening exchanges, the 13-2 chance cruised to the fore at the top of the home straight and was ridden out inside the final quarter-mile to comfortably outpoint British challenger Sea The Storm (Sea The Stars) by 1 3/4 lengths.
