This Friday at 8:15 p.m., there will be 13 of them set off for the Final of the UET Elite Circuit (Gr. I) on the 2,100 meters of the main Vincennes track. In this gala quinté, contested using the autostart, the forecaster of ParisTurfCédric Bloquet, chose to trust the last winner of the Grand Prix d’Amérique (Gr. I), Idao de Tillard (3). Third in a very tactical Grand Prix de Wallonie (Gr. I) in Mons, the crack of Thierry Duvaldestin “ finds his favorite route (editor’s note, he has 5 successes in 7 attempts) and will logically win the majority of votes. » Plated from the front, as during his success at La Capelle in the Grand Prix de la Fédération du Nord (Gr. II) but for the first time at Vincennes, the son of Severino « remained in good shape but will need to be careful on the way down ”, according to his formidable mentor. To counter the representative of Cyril Sevestre, Cédric Bloquet logically thinks of Go On Boy (2). Leader of this UET Elite Circuit before this Final, the resident of Romain Derieux will be presented barefoot, as during his “ remarkable second place in the Prix de France (Gr. I) on this course » behind a certain… Idao de Tillard. You will also have to be wary of the Scandinavians Francesco Zet (12) et Borup’s Victory (4), who have proven themselves at the highest level all season and will discover Vincennes with ambitions. “ Returned to its best level », the winner of the Prix de France 2023 (Gr. I) Ampia Mede Sm (1) « is one of the very regular chances » in the same way asEmeraude de Bais (7), which “ knows how to sublimate in big meetings ». Ganay of Banville (6), « with a good track record », et Vivid Wise As (10), « no longer as efficient but which is very enjoyable on the track », will complete the selection of our star tipster.
The numerical selection of Cédric Bloquet (ParisTurf): 3-2-12-4-1-7-6-10
100% Quinté: David Fricaux votes for Idao de Tillard
In the daily show on the YouTube channel ParisTurf TV, David Fricaux connects with Cédric Bloquet, giving his preference to Idao de Tillard facing Go On Boy. Our “chief” of Normandy also really likes the applications fromAmpia Mede Sm and of Vivid Wise Asvery confirmed at this level, as well as the profile of Borup’s Victorywho he sees making a good start on our soil.
Idao de Tillard (3) : « He is one of the two best French horses with Horsy Dreamabsent this Friday. In addition, he returns to his favorite course, the 2,100 meters of the Grande Piste de Vincennes, on which he has five successes in seven attempts. He is in good shape and will obviously be one of the attractions of the event. »
Go On Boy (2) : « He has only won once on the course but does not have the same career profile as a Idao de Tillardhaving raced a lot abroad. He remains on a success in Mons, where he quickly took the lead despite an unfavorable number, imposed a senatorial pace, and extended the shot at the exit of the last turn to prove intractable until the end. That day, he was ahead Ampia Mede Sm et Idao de Tillardwho he will meet again this Friday. With his number 2 behind the autostart, and even if he is not a great mover, he should quickly find himself well placed and finish in the top three. »
Ampia Mede Sm (1) : « She is none other than one of the best mares in Europe. She adapts to everything and has references on the course, as proof I can cite her brilliant success in the Prix de France 2023, where she dominated Vivid Wise As after trotting with my nose to the wind. Now trained by Thierry Duvaldestin, it is an essential base for this quinté with its number 1 behind the autostart. »
Vivid Wise As (10) : « He will have to deal with his number on the second row behind the autostart but he is a specialist on the 2,100 meters of the Grande Piste. His driver Matthieu Abrivard knows him by heart. Together, they finished third in the Prix René Ballière on June 23 behind Horsy Dream et Idao de Tillardfor their last attempt on the route. This is an obvious opportunity in this luxury quinté. »
Borup’s Victory (4) : « He lacks references in Vincennes since he has never run on Parisian dirt but he is a very regular and fit trotter. He has just been beaten by Francesco Zet to Bergsaker but he shot a good number this Friday and can hope to take his revenge. It can spice up the quinté + reports. »
