He is back! Wiedingen-bred WAI KEY STAR, who placed fourth in the 2016 German Derby, returned to action today following a long break. And the fivey-year-old left no doubt that he is well on track to old strength. Trained by Sarah Steinberg for Stall Salzburg, the colt traveled to Italy to take on the €71,500 Premio Ambrosiano, a G3 challenge run over 2000 m at Milano racecourse. René Piechulek was aboard WAI KEY STAR for a gutsy effort by the colt to secure a tight third place. The colt is by our champion sire SOLDIER HOLLOW out of our top-mare WAKYTARA. |
