Second Group One for Skalleti
The Jerome Reynier-trainer Skalleti (6 g Kendargent - Skallet by Muhaymin) ran at a dominant five length winner in the Grosser Dallmayr-Preis Bayerishches Zuchtrennen (Gr 1, 2000m) at Munich to notch up his second Group One victory and 16th victory from his 21 start career. Skalleti settled at the rear of the field many lengths off the breakaway leader Tabera and confidently ridden by Gerald Mosse, he came with a strong run down the centre of the track taking the lead inside the final 200m and drew away to win effortlessly by five lengths with plenty in reserve. Grocer Jack (Oasis Dream) was game in defeat battling on for second with No Limit Credit (Night Of Thunder) a further neck back in third. Skalleti is out of Listed winner Skallet, who has also produced Group Two winner Skazino (Kendargent) and Listed placed Skalleto (Kendargent).
