The German champion is joined on the list by last year's runner-up, the 2021 Deutsches Derby winner Sisfahan (Fr) (Isfahan {Ger}), as well as recent Baden-Baden Group 2 winner Alter Adler (Ger) (Adlerflug {Ger}).

A strong overseas entry for the 2,400m contest at Iffezheim includes last year's Irish Derby winner Hurricane Lane (Ire) ((Frankel {GB}) and his Godolphin stable-mate, the Breeders' Cup Turf winner Yibir (Ire) (Dubawi {Ire}). Also potentially making the trip from Newmarket is Kirsten Rausing's Alpinista (GB) (Frankel {GB}), trained by Sir Mark Prescott and the winner of three Group 1 races in Germany last year, and the Saudi-owned, William Haggas-trained Grocer Jack (Ger) (Oasis Dream {GB}), who started his career in Germany. Richard Hannon has entered Amo Racing's Mojo Star (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}), who has been runner-up in the Derby, St Leger and Gold Cup. 

Stephan Buchner, managing partner of Baden Galopp, said: “We are very happy with the outstanding number of entries for our highlight of the year. The response from home and abroad makes us look forward with great anticipation to a horseracing festival on September 4 on our beautiful racetrack.”

The €200,000 Grosser Preis von Baden is the feature race on the final day of Baden-Baden's 'Grosse Woche' which gets underway on Aug. 27.
