Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted December 30, 2019 Journalists Share Posted December 30, 2019 German champion 2-year-old colt Erasmus (Ger) (Reliable Man {GB}–Enora {GB}, by Noverre), a runaway winner of the 2017 G3 Preis der Winterfavoriten, will take up stud duty at the Haras des Fontaines, near Pau in the South West of France, in 2020. Erasmus will stand for €1,900. Bred by Gestut Roettgen and trained by Markus Klug, the colt was third in his career debut at Dusseldorf before annexing a 1,600-metre maiden event. In what would be his career finale, he took the 1,600-meter Winterfavoriten by eight lengths and was preparing for his 3-year-old return when sustaining a sesamoid fracture during a routine morning gallop early in the season. The colt is out of Enora, a winner of the G1 Preis der Diana and one of 10 winners and five black-type winners produced by Enrica (GB). She is a half-sister to the Group 2 winner and Group 1- placed Egerton (Ger) (Groom Dancer), group winner Ephraim (GB) (Rail Link {GB}) and stakes winners Ephigenie (Ire) (Groom Dancer) and Ernesto (Ger) (Reliable Man {GB}).
