Things may not have gone to plan with Vadeni (Fr) (Churchill {Ire}) on Sunday, but The Aga Khan and Jean-Claude Rouget will be looking to put that experience behind him quickly as TDN Rising Star Erevann (Fr) (Dubawi {Ire}) takes aim at Monday's G1 Prix d'Ispahan at ParisLongchamp. Successful in the G2 Prix Daniel Wildenstein here in October, having finished in the frame in the G1 Prix Jacques le Marois at Deauville in August, the son of the high-class Ervedya (Fr) (Siyouni {Fr}) enjoyed the perfect sharpener when third in the G2 Prix du Muguet over a mile at Saint-Cloud at the start of the month.
Starting Point For Onesto…
This also serves as the reintroduction of fellow TDN Rising Star Onesto (Ire) (Frankel {GB}), who may find this trip shy of 10 furlongs too sharp so a win is probably asking too much of the 2022 G1 Grand Prix de Paris hero and G1 Irish Champion S. runner-up. Shadwell's G2 Prix Dollar winner Anmaat (Ire) (Awtaad {Ire}) will provide a pointer to the G1 Prince of Wales's S. prospects of Adayar (Ire) (Frankel {GB}), having finished runner-up to Godolphin's giant in the G3 Gordon Richards S. staged at Newmarket earlier this month.
Classic Action At Cologne...
Cologne stages the G2 Mehl-Mulhens-Rennen, or German 2000 Guineas, with Yoshiro Kubota's dual Polytrack winner (Lope De Vega {Ire}) a fascinating contender for the Roger Varian stable. Disappointingly, the home defence looks weak on paper, with the market leaders all from Britain or France.
