Pastorius (Ger) (Soldier Hollow {GB}-Princess Li {Ger}, by Monsun {Ger}), who has four winners to his credit thus far from his first crop, has been purchased by a group of French breeders and will relocate to Haras de la Hetraie in 2018, according to Jour de Galop. The three-time Group 1 winner over 2000 to 2400 metres had previously stood at Gestut Fahrhof in Germany.
A Group 3 winner in Germany at two for Stall Antanando and trainer Mario Hofer, Pastorius bested Novellist (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}) in the G1 Deutsches Derby at three and also won the G1 Grosser Dallmayr-Preis that season. He ventured to France the following season to best Maxios (Ger) (Monsun {Ger}) by a length in the G1 Prix Ganay.
