“He should have double his current earnings but that’s okay. We have fun with him, because he is downgraded. »Before the event, Christophe Martens, driver ofElmagnifico de Lou (n ° 11), was full of praise for his partner. And the way he won confirms the words of the Belgian driver. Patient at the start of the course, he took the lead shortly after the start of the climb. The rest was easy for the 7-year-old gelding since he has never been approached again. His performance is all the more remarkable since he was the only shod horse at the start and he broke his personal best since he covered the 2,100 m of the main track at the Paris-Vincennes hippodrome in the ‘excellent kilometer reduction of 1′10′’9.
Like he usually does, Rocky Tilly (n ° 13) dawdled for a long time in the rear but once again finished very well to grab second place behind the untouchable winner. Courageous all along the straight line, Love Journey (n ° 9) narrowly retains third place at the expense of Come On Hugo (n ° 12) while Of May (# 7) completes the right combination.
