His profile
Easy to identify on a course, this gray-coated horse is most often seen at the front. Pugnacious, he knows how to go very far, particularly on the fiber sand tracks of France on which he has never finished further than second place. He demonstrated it once again in the reference race, contested on the course he found. He proved during his back-to-school race that he was ready and still competitive in 41 value. If he does not make too much effort to clear his place on the outside in the starting stalls, which he was able to do on December 23, he should once again compete for the finish.
His last release
Prix du Mont-Saint-Michel – 2500 meters PSF – Deauville – 12/23/24 – 2nd
Starting from stall 13 and quickly falling to the front to take control of the event, he contained all the attacks up to 400 meters from the post. Pulling himself together, he returned to challenge the future winner until the final disc.

The opinion of her trainer, Sarah Steinberg
“Kosakenzipfel (2) had an excellent comeback recently on this course, despite the 61 kilos he carried. I hope he can repeat this great outing this Friday. The only downside is that the weather conditions at Munich these last few days have not allowed us to work as planned so I hope that his physical condition will be sufficient. In any case, the horse is in good shape and in good spirits!
