Daytona and Da Costa, High Scorers at 2018 Munich Stallion Sport Test

The 4-year old Daytona and the 5-year old Da Costa became the high scoring horses at the 2018 Stallion Sport Test held in Munich on 23 - 25 March 2018.

The Munich Sport Test drew a much smaller field of participants. There were eight 4-year olds but two did not complete the test (Crimetime GT, Sir Schneiders), and there were just five 5-year olds of which one dropped out mid test (Flashback).

In the 4-year old group Daytona (by De Niro x Quaterback x Rouletto) was the top scoring horse with an 8.28 point total.
