Chief Stipe Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Dschingis Secret (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}), owned by Hong Kong entrepreneur Horst Pudwill and trained by Markus Klug, was voted German Horse of the Year in a public vote, Galopponline.de reported on Monday. The 2017 G1 Grosser Preis von Berlin hero was well clear of stablemate and last year’s G1 Deutsches Derby victor Windstoss (Ger) (Shirocco {Ger}) with 56.6% of the German public’s vote, to the latter’s 32.8%. Dschingis Secret was also in front of German MG1SW Guignol (Ger) (Cape Cross {Ire}), who came in third with 10.6% of the votes. The ceremony took place at Cologne on Easter Monday. By 2004 German honoree Soldier Hollow, the Gestut Park Wiedingen-bred won four of his seven starts in 2017, beginning with the G2 Gerling-Preis at Cologne in May, and added his second victory of the campaign two starts later in the G2 Grosser Hansa-Preis on July 1. Stretching his winning skein to three, the €200,000 BBAGSEP yearling defeated G1 Sheema Classic scorer Hawkbill (Kitten’s Joy) in the Grosser Preis von Berlin that August, and also scooped Chantilly’s G2 Prix Foy on Sept. 10. Winless in his next two starts, Dschingis Secret was third to Guignol in the G1 Grosser Preis von Bayern on Nov. 1.
