2023 Syndicates on course for the 2025 Derby: Diamond Spirit, Warasch, Antinori and Amico

In 2023, we launched four syndicates due to high demand, and the number of outings is now increasing accordingly as we approach the highlight of the year, the IDEE 156th German Derby. With Aquaman for Liberty Racing 2023 Australia and Zauberkönig for Liberty Racing 2023 Kings, we have already picked up two winners from the racecourse in 2025, but not every performance makes it to the winners circle on the first attempt. However, all our starters have shown great performances so far.

Antinori, trained by Sarah Steinberg for Liberty Racing 2023 Kings, made his annual debut at Cologne on April 21. The Adlerflug colt started over 2400m against highly rated Derby co-favorites and finished in a great third place under Rene Piechulek.

Only a day prior, his Steinberg stablemate Warasch had made his lifetime debut for Liberty Racing 2023 Aces at Berlin-Hoppengarten. The Galiway-son finished a very good fifth over 1800m with Rene Piechulek on board and was not too far behind the leading group at the post. Today, the Camelot colt Amico (Liberty Racing 2023 Australia) also wore silks for the first time. Henk Grewe's protégé competed over 2100m at Duesseldorf and took the place of honour with Thore Hammer-Hansen piloting thanks to a fantastic speed performance.

Diamond Spirit had made his first debut for Liberty Racing 2023 Gold at Muelheim at the beginning of April and finished a very strong third over 2100m with Leon Wolff in the saddle. Unfortunately, the colty by Waldgeist had to undergo a minor surgery and will not make it to the Derby. However, he has come through it all very well and is expected to return to action in the second half of the year.

This means that all Liberty horses with classic ambitions have seen the racecourse this year, only Famosa Luna (Liberty Racing 2023 Aces) has yet to make her debut, but the German Oaks are not until August :).
