Arrival of the fifth : 1 – 9 – 8 – 14 – 3
Between Antoine Griezmann and Hooking, the story began in December 2017. The French striker then acquired this yearling. Four years later, the 6-year-old gelding offers him a first quinté at Longchamp, before doubling the lead this Sunday at the Chantilly racecourse. To win his second event, the one who had been placed as the favorite by the bettors had to elbow at the entrance to the straight line. Not enough to worry his faithful jockey, Aurélien Lemaître, who won his 36th quinté. “The horse took a long time to come back into shape, confides the winner at Equidia’s microphone. He had been unlucky last time but he proves that he is regaining his best level over the races. For Ecurie Griezmann coach Philippe Decouz, this is his sixth success in this category.
Very confirmed in fifths, The Manifesto (n°9) finished on the podium for the twentieth time. He is ahead Ronaldo (n°8), which had an ideal race in the wake of the leaders. Animator, Palmiro (n°14) proved to be very catchy but had to settle for fourth place. Another race favourite, My Charming Prince (n°3) completes the good combination of the fifth.
Special mention to Halim Bouakkaz who indicates the trifecta in the order in four horses.
