German chief handicapper Harald Siemen must, too, have been impressed by the domineering performance Wiedingen-bred DSCHINIGS SECRET delivered in Sunday's Gerling-Preis at Cologne, as the first-born of our Platini-mare DIVYA received a whooping 98.5 kg in GAG yesterday. This elevates the four-year-old colt to the third place in the progeny rankings of our champion sire SOLDIER HOLLOW, preceeded only by multiple G1 winners PASTORIUS and OUR IVANHOWE.
GAG is the German equivalent of the British/Irish BHB and RacingPost-rating RPR, a performance-based ranking system widely acknowledged in Europe and beyond. |
