It only took one back-to-school race to Kookey Melody to be operational. Presented in its best configuration, the daughter of Django Riff once again highlighted the talents of Romain Derieux as a director by winning in a classy way in the Prix des Chênes. Coming into the lead one lap from the goal, Kookey Melody gradually toughens the test throughout the last kilometer, before breaking away at the final bend, heading towards a ridiculously easy success. A sixth victory in just twelve attempts for the representative of Thierry Cattan. “At the beginning, it wasn’t easy with her because she was really complicated, confides Romain Derieux. But it gets better over time. I downgraded her for the meetings and I won easily today, showing off her toughness. She should be able to confirm soon, having a good program.”
Kador d’Espace fulfills its objective
Half an hour later, in the male category, the Prix Vourasie is Space Kador who was able to prove himself the strongest, despite a course with two noses to the wind. Author of a good acceleration in the final turn, the resident of Philippe Gaillard clearly takes the best before surely resisting the good attack of Kristo Star. “I didn’t push the pace when I found myself with my nose in the winddebriefs Christophe Martens. I was too offensive the last time at Lyon-Parilly, but on his previous outing at Vincennes it was a first chance. He was very strong today.” Philippe Gaillard was not surprised by his performance: “The commitment was really ideal and he was “pumped up” since his arrival in Cagnes. It fulfills its objective, it’s perfect!”
