While Sunday's action is a notch or two below that of Saturday, there are two fascinating contests in Germany and Ireland to savour in the G3 Preis des Winterfavoriten and the Listed Staffordstown Stud S.
In the former at Cologne, Gestut Ittlingen's Antero (Ire) (Manduro {Ger}) looks as exciting as any of the line-up following his seven-length maiden win at Dortmund Sept. 19. Gestut Rottgen's Ariolo (Ger) (Reliable Man {GB}) was second to the filly Mylady (Ger) (The Grey Gatsby {Ire} in the Listed Junioren-Preis at Dusseldorf Sept. 12, with the re-opposing Millionaire (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}) and Sea Bay (Ger) (New Bay {GB}) behind in third and fourth.
The Curragh's Staffordstown Stud S. over a mile sees Newtown Anner Stud Farm's 'TDN Rising Star' Angels Wrath (Ire) (Dark Angel {Ire}) bid to build on the impression of her emphatic debut win over seven furlongs on Dundalk's Polytrack Sept. 24. She will have to be every bit as smart as she looked there on her turf debut against the likes of Martin Schwartz's Sept. 11 Listed Ingabelle S. second Limiti Di Greccio (Ire) (Elzaam {Aus}) and Lindsay Laroche's Sept. 12 G1 Moyglare Stud S. third and Aug. 21 G2 Debutante S. and Sept. 26 G3 Weld Park S. runner-up Sunset Shiraz (Ire) (Time Test {GB}).
