35th stakes winner for Manduro

The Andreas Wohler-trained Soul Train (3 c ex Indochine by Special Nash) took out Sunday’s Derby Trial Fruhjahrspreis (Gr 3, 2000m) at Baden-Baden on Sunday and in the process handed Manduro (Monsun) his 35th stakes winner.

Bought for €15,000 by UNIA Racing at the 2018 BBAG September Yearling Sale, Soul Train is one of five winners and the only stakes winner out of Brazilian Grade 1 winner Indochine (Special Nash). That mare has also produced the stakes placed pair Linngaro (Linngari) and Love And Peace (Linngari) and is a half-sister to Grade 2 winner Ladyttore (Redattore) being out of Binoche (Kenetico). 

Further back this is the family of Grade 2 winners Bekmensity (Kenetico) and Givememore (Special Nash) as well as Grade 3 winner Landau (Shudanz). 

Manduro’s stakes winners are headed by six Group / Grade 1 winners including  and he has sired two stakes winners in Australia in Greatwood and Bonfire. He stood the 2020 breeding season at Haras du Logis in Normandy where his fee was set at €7,000.
