VIRGINIA STORM ran the race of his life today in Baden-Baden, finishing a superb second in the Großer Preis der Badischen Wirtschaft auf Gr.2-Parkett. The four-year-old SOLDIER HOLLOW colt did not even have an optimal trip, but impressed with a spirited finish, which secured him the place of honor one length behind the winner after 2200 metres. Alberto Sanna was in the saddle for trainer Henk Grewe and owners Gestüt Auenquelle, also breeders of VIRGINIA STORM who is a full brother to the Gr.1 German Oaks third and Gr.2 winner in the U.S. VIRGINIA JOY.
