Building on his incredible success during the races for Arabian horses in Saint-Cloud and Longchamp at the beginning of October, trainer Xavier Thomas-Demeaulte continues to shine and has made the Grand National des Anglo-Arabes his own at 12 .5% via the aptly named Flamboyant whose mother, Flamb’eehad finished three times in this event in 2017, 2018 and 2019 without managing to win. Its first product, Flamboyanttherefore did better than her mother and she is only the second female of 3 years after the alien Genmoss to add his name to the list of winners for this event: “It’s never easy to confront your elders, especially among Anglos.” explains his coach, Xavier Thomas-Demeaulte from Mons, then adds: “His victory in Tarbes was so convincing that we tried it in this event. What she does is really very good. Now, she will be entitled to four months of rest before being seen in competition again.”The great favorite, Mombasanarrowly fails to succeed while third place goes to Cheops of Buj who did not have all his comfort in the final phase and who could have struggled with the first two.
