Arrival of the quinté : 3 – 8 – 12 – 4 – 9
The weekend is starting in the best possible way for Julien Le Mer. While waiting for the performance ofIdeal OakSunday in the Prix de Cornulier, the trainer of the Guedj family team witnessed the success ofOak Isofou (No. 3), in the pay-per-view betting support event. “I always said that he was one of the best horses I have trained,” said the fitter on the podium. He’s an imposing horse and I have to space out the races by a month. It will only be seen once before the end of the meeting before being sent to the Grand National du Trot. »
However, victory took time to emerge for the man who won the fourth quinté of his career. “I had a few scares because we were still close behind in the last turn,” admits its driver, Paul Ploquin. On the other hand, when I was able to get out, my horse accelerated magnificently. »
The winner came to score near the post want man (n° 8), which was an illusion for the laurels. Harison du Plessis (n° 12) leaves a very good impression and finishes in third place after having waited a long time in the peloton. This is also the case for Ilaya (n° 4) who fails at the foot of the podium. Hollywood du Bois (n° 9) completes the good combination of the quinté.
