German Derby winner Fantastic Moon (Ger) (Sea The Moon {Ger}) is expected to return in Sunday's G1 Grosser Preis von Baden, according to Liberty Racing's Lars-Wilhlem Baumgarten.

“He is very well, he worked well on Monday in the morning and he will run in the Grosser Preis von Baden on Sunday. We nominated him today for the race, we supplemented him.”

In his latest start, the colt finished runner-up behind Nations Pride (Ire) in the July 30 G1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis – Bayerisches Zuchtrennen.

“We decided against the [Irish] Champion S. and against the Prix Niel and went for Baden-Baden. It is a German race, we know the horses, there is one French horse in the race and then we will see how good he is.”
