Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 9, 2019 Journalists Share Posted June 9, 2019 Bank Holiday Monday sees some black-type action in France and Germany, with the chief attraction being at Cologne where the G2 Union-Rennen separates the wheat from the chaff as far as the Deutsches Derby is concerned. Hedge Baumgarten Holschbach’s Django Freeman (Ger) (Campanologist) bids to follow up his success in the May 1 G3 Bavarian Classic at Munich, with Gestut Ittlingen’s Laccario (Ger) (Scal {GB}) there to test his merit to the full after an impressive win in Dusseldorf’s Listed Derby-Trial on May 26. Gestut Ravensberg’s Winterfuchs (Ger) (Campanologist) captured the G3 Dr. Busch-Memorial over 8 1/2 furlongs at Krefeld on Apr. 28 and has stamina to prove over this 11-furlong trip, but his pedigree suggests it will suit. At ParisLongchamp, the Listed Prix Volterra sees Lady Bamford’s G3 Prix Imprudence runner-up Suphala (Fr) (Frankel {GB}) back in action after finishing ninth in the G1 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches over this course and distance on May 12. She is tackled by Haras Voltaire’s unbeaten Alzire (Fr) (Shamardal), while in the feature G3 La Coupe sees Godolphin’s Feb. 21 G3 Dubai Millennium S. scorer Spotify (Fr) (Redoute’s Choice {Aus}) reappear in Europe. Andre Fabre puts Ballymore Thoroughbred Ltd’s G3 Prix de Flore winner Ligne d’Or (GB) (Dansili {GB}) in against the colts, which may be significant.
