Arrival of the fifth : 8 – 6 – 4 – 10 – 3
After the demonstration in the opening round of Jean-Michel Bazire’s boarder, Jushua Tree, which allows him to win his first Group III, the quinté was reserved for competitors well known to racegoers with trotters from 7 to 10 years old inclusive, having not won 425,000 euros. Contested with the help of the autostart over the distance of 2,100 m on the main track, this European race did not allow its great favorite (6/10), Oracle Tile (n°6) to maintain his invincibility on this speed track. The resident of Thierry Duvaldestin is content with second place, while benefiting from the disqualification of the winner Fakir de Mahey (n°1), behind Haufor’s Gull (n°8) whose driver, Damien Bonne was delighted with his performance: “He runs very well. With his number 8 behind the autostart, there was no point in putting him in the red. I decided to wait. In the last turn, I had the back of Mathieu (Mottier) and everything went very well to the millimeter. »
The trifecta is completed by Kennedy (n°4), which confirms its aptitude for speed plots. It precedes Al Capone Stecca (n°10), author of an attractive end of race, which allowed him to get ahead around the post, Gaspar de Brion (n°3), entered the finish line first.
Stéphan Flourent indicated the fifth in the disorder in six horses. Kévin Romain, Dimitri Fortin, Halim Bouakkaz and our Synthesis proposed it out of order in seven horses.
