13.30 Hannover, Cond, €20,000, 3yo, 12fT
QUANTANAMERA (GER) (Lope De Vega {Ire}) has her seasonal bow in this Derby-Trial which formerly carried listed status and is quite a presence, having beaten this week's listed scorer Empore (Ger) (Oasis Dream {GB}) by 8 1/2 lengths when last seen in Baden-Baden's G3 Preis der Winterkonigin in October. Bred to appreciate middle distances, Jurgen Sartori's Andreas Suborics trainee is the sole filly against six colts as she bids to further her claims for both the July 2 G1 Deutsches Derby and Aug. 6 G1 Preis der Diana.
