Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted October 22, 2019 Journalists Posted October 22, 2019 Retirement looks the most likely avenue for Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) following his victory in the Oct. 6 G1 Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe, with trainer Andre Fabre telling Racing Post in Deauville on Tuesday, “We’re talking to the good [stud] farms and the wish is to retire him. Nobody is really keen to think about another race at this stage.” Campaigned by Gestut Ammerland and Newsells Park, Waldgeist is a Group 1 winner at two, four and five. He beat Best Solution (Ire) (Kodiac {GB}) and Capri (Ire) (Galileo {Ire})-with future G1 Investec Derby winner Wings of Eagles (Fr) (Pour Moi {Ire}) and G1 Melbourne Cup winner Rekindling (GB) (High Chaparral {Ire}) further down the field-in the 2016 G1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud, and added the G1 Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud at four before finishing fourth behind Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}) in the 2018 Arc. He was at his best at five this term, winning the G1 Prix Ganay, G2 Prix Foy and the Arc.
