Arrowfield Stud believe its s “Queensland Derby here I come” for DUNDEEL'S 29th Stakes Winner TANNHAUSER after his victory in Saturday’s Gr3 BRC Rough Habit Plate 2000m at Doomben.
His performance was franked by the fact that Australian Oaks Gr1 winner AUTUMN ANGEL (by The Autumn Sun) powered up from near the back of the field to run second, and last-start Queensland Guineas Gr2 winner KINTYRE, two lengths away in third spot. All three are amongst the Derby nominations.
Tannhauser’s jockey James McDonald said, “Perfect run. He’s a nice horse. He’s got a lot of ability. This time last year he might have started favourite for a JJ Atkins.”
Indeed, after his Sydney 2YO maiden win last May, Tannhauser was favourite for that race and finished third to King Colorado & Dundeel’s daughter Miracle Of Love.
However, the winner’s circle eluded him until his trainer and owners made the decision to geld him after finishing 4th in the Frank Packer Plate Gr3 on 20 April, and then sent him up early to the stable’s Gold Coast base.
Tannhauser is the second foal of Luqyaa (by Exceed and Excel), a city-winning 2YO and multiple stakes- placegetter whose dam Charmview was also a Queensland Group winner.
China Horse Club, Newgate Bloodstock and Trilogy Racing combined to purchase him for $425,000 from the Magic Millions Gold Coast. The same team also signed at that sale for Dundeel’s triple Group 1-winning son Militarize, now standing at Newgate.

Dundeel maintains his lead on Australia’s current 3YO Sires’ table with $8.2 million prizemoney and 5 stakes winners headed by two Group 1 winners Celestial Legend & Militarize.
