Arrival of the quinté: 5 – 10 – 2 – 3 – 6. Not leaving: 11
The days go by and are alike for Nicolas Perret. After winning Wednesday’s quinté thanks to Beautiful Memory, the trainer based in Calas (Bouches-du-Rhône) doubled the lead by victoriously saddled Rock Joyeux (n ° 5) on the hippodrome on the banks of the Allier. Remaining on a victory at this level, this 5-year-old gelding did as well as on June 24 at Compiègne (Oise) to the great satisfaction of his jockey Sylvain Ruis: “He’s really a chic horse. He has a lot of strength and has a lot of hold. He still easily wins despite being eight pounds heavier. And to add in conclusion: “I was very confident because he really won very easily last month at the Putois racecourse. »
This 5-year-old gelding is two lengths ahead of Kintana Blue (n°10), constantly noticed in the leading group. After photography, My Charming Prince (n°2) precedes Sir George (n°3) by only one nose. The quinté is completed by Utamaro (n°6).
Earlier in the day, Francis-Henri Graffard’s stablemate Zeeyara brilliantly won the Prix Madame Jean Couturié, a Listed race reserved for 3-year-old fillies and won her second victory for her third outing.
