Hooper of the Hunts is a big regular at Cagnois meetings where he had already scored no less than four successes before this Wednesday. Despite the presence of good 7 year olds, including the grand favorite, Inferna de Houellewho had to settle for fourth place after having to travel with his nose to the wind during the 2,925 m course, the son of Quaker Jet showed himself to be imperial at the finish of the Prix Henri Estable, easily creating the decision after a good waiting course given by Christophe Martens. “We benefited from a good progress, with good backs throughout the event, analyzes his driver when he returns from the track. It’s clear that the course made the difference today. He’s a good horse, who was at the top in this race and who likes when the events are selective like today. We haven’t been successful so far this Wednesday and it’s nice to end the meeting on a good note.”
