Will Atreus stay on track for success?

Nancy, Monday, April 11: There are plenty of German chances in today`s eight-race event in Nancy. In the Prix des Conseillers de la Filière Equine du Grand-Est (2nd race/16:50/18,000 euros/2500 m), Uwe Schwinn will saddle Atreus (Stefanie Koyuncu), who recently won in Strasbourg. The four-year-old will meet Doralice (Axelle Nicco), who finished a good fourth behind the gelding. Already here in November, the mare lost out to the Schwinn protégé in the battle for fifth place. In addition to the mare, Karoly Kerekes also has Sharar (Bayarsaikhan Ganbat) on the schedule, for whom only minor placings speak. Regine Weißmeier is represented by Damavand (Esther Ruth Weißmeier), who won in Dortmund this year, Ertürk Kurdu saddles Interstella (Leon Wolff), who is constantly running in the honored ranks, and Iffezheim trainer Conny Whitfield brings Analeon (Tony Piccone), who is in strong form, to the start. Art of Fusion (Sebastien Maillot) and My Buddy (Benjamin Marie) won their most recent outings and are again conceivable in the front end.
