Lucky Speed captures American St. Leger Stakes! (15.08.2015)
 
He didn’t need any luck--only his irresistible speed! Ittlingen-bred 2013 German Derby winner Lucky Speed made a lasting impression on North American turf tonight. A crowd of 35,000 at Arlington Park witnessed the Silvano-colt capture the $350,000 group 3 American St. Leger Stakes and set a new track record over the staying distance of 3,017 meters! German champion jockey Andrasch Starke served the five-year-old with a perfect race, saving plenty of ground hugging the rails and making the deciding move down the back stretch to win by 3/4 of a length over co-favorites Panama Hat and Hyper.

We sincerely congratulate owners Stall Hornoldendorf, trainer Peter Schiergen and, of course, Andrasch Starke to this incredible success!
