Pearl Bloodstock’s representative Karpino won the German 2,000 Guineas (Gr2) at Cologne, Germany on Monday, 25 May 2015. The colt is now unbeaten in three starts. He won easily beating his nearest rival, Fanciful Angel, by four lengths. This was a first Classic success for young jockey Oisin Murphy, who joined the Qatar Racing and Pearl Bloodstock team this year.
His trainer Anderas Wohler said: “It is most likely that the German Derby at Hamburg on July 5 will now be next on his programme but he is entered in every big race. He definitely stays and all the big mile and a half races will be options.”
