Horse of the day
307 – Jaouen (5:45 p.m.): The resident of Guillaume Beaufils opened his prize list at the end of his 41st race, in Caen. On this occasion, he had won with real authority. He has already placed himself on the 2100 meters of the big Vincennes track and will be associated with Eric Raffin. Once again tackled with all four feet, he has a first theoretical chance.
The outsider of the day
211 – Kerro de Houelle (5:10 p.m.): This protégé of Franck Leblanc won his race during the previous Winter Meeting. After two good second places in the provinces, he was at fault in the first turn, where he was not comfortable, for his return to Vincennes. Driven by Loïc Guinoiseau, who has always led it since its beginnings, he has the means to play the leading roles.
The driver to follow: Romain Derieux
Romain Derieux will be present twice during this meeting. The man of Go on Boy will pilot Kronos du Goutier (203) for training Pavel Tamsin. Good finisher in a similar field, recently on this track, this gelding from Ready Cash can take an active part in the arrival.
In the seventh meeting, he will put on his foal’s sulky Loup Pantail (712). This son of Dijon made an impression in his first two outings in the Southeast. For his debut on the Parisian ashes, he can remain undefeated in this field.
The coach to follow: Guillaume Beaufils
In 2024, Guillaume Beaufils is having a record year: he has doubled his winnings compared to last year (€627,240 compared to €321,635 in 2023) and has 38 winners, his best score since he became self-employed.
The Normandy trainer will be doubly represented in the third race of the program: Jaouen (see above) and Jumilly Jackpot (311)second for his only appearance on the 2100 meters of the big track.
He will also delegate Jovany (610) in the sixth test, at a mounted trot. He revealed himself this year in this specialty: he never came out of the top five in six attempts. Unshod, he must be supervised for his first steps in the Trot temple.
