The major event of the meeting this Friday evening in Vincennes, the Prix Hersilie ultimately brought together only twelve participants and will therefore not be able to support the Quinté+. Contested on the 2,100 meters of the main track, this European race for 6 to 8 years old, closed at 295,000 euros, brought together several ambitious foreign competitors. Fourth in the Critérium Continental last winter, Desire d’Esi finds beforehand a great opportunity to stand out. Third during his first two outings this winter, the student of Vitale Ciotola promises to be formidable and will try to return to success, which has eluded him since June 29, 2023. That day, in Rome, he was ahead of a certain Danger Biwhich he will meet again this Friday. Disappointing during the Prix de Boissy-Saint-Léger, when he started favorite, the student of Alessandro Gocciadoro “had experienced a physical problem and was treated”in the words of the team manager, Alessandro Manfredi. A buyout on his part is therefore entirely possible. When we talk about the European race in Vincennes, it is impossible to do without Erik Bondo, who delegates three of his residents. Delicate but endowed with undeniable means, the aptly named Demon is capable of competing after a flawless round. Much better known on French soil, where he has a total of five successes, Charmy Charly As can take advantage of its position within. As for Gasolinehe was unable to appear threatening for his return, but could this time show a different face.
Jason and Harison du Plessis, two ambitious tricolors
However, the French chances are not zero with the presence of Jason and of Harison du Plessis (one of the eldest in the race at 8 years old). The first city has just run in clear improvement (6th), and will leave with the confidence of Pierre Levesque, who confided to Gilles Pomade that his protégé “is coming back well after some issues and seems to be on the right track.” Lightened in its hardware, it should defend itself well. As for Harison du Plessishe has tirelessly repeated his value for several weeks. His task promises to be more complicated than during his last outings, but the student of Philippe Boutin remains very generous and can still surpass himself, in the company of Éric Raffin with whom he gets along perfectly, and on a course where he won on September 13.
