The arrival of the Prix Magne (R1C2 – Group 3)
The race
For his semi-return and his first Group, Zaine could not go back completely Olympic Story in the Price of Chambly (Gr. III), on September 19 over the 3600 meters over hurdles at Auteuil. On the occasion of Magne Prize (Gr. III), the protégé of Dominique Bressou inflicts the first defeat on that of Francois Nicolle. Long wait-and-see, the partner of Gabin Meunier gets closer in the last turn and shows clear superiority after jumping the final hurdle, leaving her main rival 9 lengths behind!
Winner in the Great Autumn Criterium (Gr. 1) in Merano, Lafayette must only settle for third place further.
Gabin Meunier, Zaine’s jockey: “On these obstacles, she is still immature but she has a strange engine all the same”
