Prix du Muguet at Saint-Cloud

The Group Two Prix du Muguet over a mile at 15.50 CET is the main feature at Saint-Cloud today and has often been won in the past by German-trained runners. That will not be the case today, but there could be a winner with German conections,as Andre Fabre saddles two runners, Baron Ullmann´s Persian Storm (Stephane Pasquier) and the Japanese-owned Turfrose (Johan Victoire), who were both bred in Germany. Hot favourite here is Olivier Peslier´s mount, the very consistent Spirito del Vento. There are two German-trained runners on the undercard, Andreas Trybuhl´s Ziethe (Antony Crastus) in the opening mile race for 4yo´s at 13.50, and Dr. Andreas Bolte´ s Pompidou (M. Scandella) in the 2100 metres conditions race at 16.30, but both face a very stiff task.
