Having gained 'TDN Rising Star' status on his winning debut at Chantilly Sept. 8, Gestut Ammerland, Newsells Park Stud and Susan Magnier's Waldgeist (GB) (Galileo {Ire}) returns to that venue for the G3 Prix de Conde. Trainer Andre Fabre boasts the record of seven wins in this pointer to next year's middle-distance Classics and he will know more about his colt after he has encountered two proven performers in Frankuus (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) and High Alpha (Fr) (Fuisse {Fr}).
