Winner of the Quinté Prix Pythia on May 31 in Vincennes in 1’12”4 over the 2,850 meters of the main track, Inexess Blue returned to the success that had eluded him since November. The opportunity for Alexandre Abrivard to find his champion on the highest step of the podium. On Saturday, the duo will headline the Enghien meeting for the Prix de New York (2,150 meters – autostart). The opportunity for the student from the Abrivard family to discover a new route and a different configuration in terms of hardware: “He hasn’t done speed courses in a long time. (editor’s note, February 2022 and a disqualification over the 2,100 meters in Vincennes). It will be plated on the front legs and unshod on the hind legs. We don’t want to present him barefoot to Enghien. On a flat profile like this, it matters less. You will have to count on a good number in the draw. He stayed very well. He’s a champion”, explained Alexandre Abrivard on Monday morning. In this New York Prize, which Alexandre Abrivard won in 2021 with Fairy Wood (as driver but also owner), Inexess Blue will rush to the front line alongside Bordeaux Sthe best, Harlem de Bucyafter a back-to-school race, while the first two of the 2023 edition, Cash Bank Bigi (6 years) and Kennedy, back from Italy, are in the running for an event which will support quinté.
