Matthieu Varin announced the color in our columns on Friday: “Emperor of Ela should not take screenings”. Indeed, the son of Carat Williams didn’t take much on Saturday in this new version of the Prix de la Ville de Caen (formerly Prix d’Automne). Starting on the outside, then coming into the lead halfway across the line, this 6-year-old steamroller then set his pace, before keeping the opposition at bay in the final phase. “The other day, we were unhappy in Vincennes and we put things back in place hereconfided Matthieu Varin, who gave his voice to support his horse and Anthony Barrier in the straight. It’s been twice that we’ve been calm with this train horse, because I also want to preserve it. As I was really upset following his last outing, I said: “Today we’re riding.” Once on his rail, he is very strong and difficult to take.” Emperor of Ela signs his seventh victory of the year and takes the opportunity to improve his record by completing the 2,450 meters of the Prairie in 1’12”5. “He should now be headed to the Grand Prix de Salon-de-Provence (Gr. III), on October 26, where he will once again start at the near post”concludes the Manche developer, who is having his best season.
For his first attempt with a right hand, Iacynthe Didjeap finished on the second step of the podium, ahead Indigo Piers. “We must not return to this rope againanalyzed Benjamin Rochard, partner of the first named. Despite his hesitation three hundred meters from the post, I don’t think we would have beaten the winner, because he always starts again.”
