Five-year-old Tiger Hil entire Oriental Tiger ran out the two-length winner of the €50,000 (A$85,000) G3 Grand Prix Aufgalop over 2200m in Germany on Sunday.
Out of the Big Shuffle mare Oriental Flower, Oriental Tiger was bred by Gestut Auenquelle and has excellent black type credentials. He has been placed six times in stakes company up to G1 level, when he was third in the 2006 Deutsches Derby and has finished in the money in 11 of his 12 career starts.
Tiger Hill, who stood his first season at Darley Australia in 2006, is the sire of 20 stakes winners, including G1-winning juvenile Konigstiger and German Oaks heroine Iota. His first southern hemisphere yearlings have already made up to $270,000 and he has a further four catalogued for the forthcoming Easter sale.
