Emotional win for Schlenderhan?

Following the sad news of the death of Karin von Ullmann earlier this week, a victory for Gestüt Schlenderhan today would be particularly appropriate, and Kalla (André Fabre/ Maxime Guyon) has an obvious chance in the listed Prix Melisande for 3yo fillies over 2000 metres at Fontainbleau at 15.35 this afternoon. Kalla, a daughter of Monsun out of the good mare Kittywake, was an impressive winner of her only start so far and can defeat her 4 opponents here, although they all have useful form to their credit as well. There is also trotting this afternoon at Laval, with the 5th round of the Grand National du Trot as the opening event at 13.50.
