Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 23, 2021 Journalists Share Posted April 23, 2021 It has taken longer than initially expected, but Waldkonig (GB) (Kingman {GB}) finally got his pattern-race win at the right end of his 4-year-old campaign in Friday's G3 Gordon Richards S. at Sandown. Labelled a TDN Rising Star at two, Gestut Ammerland and Newsells Park Stud's half-brother to Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) was winning for the first time subsequently in a handicap over this 10-furlong trip at Pontefract Apr. 6 and attracted significant support into 6-4 favouritism for this competitive affair. Ridden up with the pace from the outset before getting a lead from Extra Elusive (GB) (Mastercraftsman {Ire}), the bay was sent past that rival by Frankie Dettori with two furlongs remaining and was always doing enough to hold the veteran Desert Encounter (Ire) (Halling) by 1 1/4 lengths, with Extra Elusive 2 1/2 lengths away in third.
