He will be the attraction of the mixed flat and obstacle meeting this Saturday afternoon at the racecourse. Hip Hop Conti will make its comeback during the second preparatory session for the Grand Cross Allianz Olivier Ournac on February 9.
The jumper from the Patrick Joubert stable, trained by Emmanuel Clayeux, will turn in the presentation circle at 12:15 p.m. before setting off with his six competitors for the 5,600 meters of the Prix Mortimer de Lassence. The 7-year-old has not reappeared in competition since his triumph in the Grand Cross on February 18.
The editorial team advises you
He will try to maintain his invincibility this year after three victories. The first took place in this event when he had made his return earlier this season in the Hubert de Navailles. He only placed third, behind the winner Saint Godefroy who repeated on December 11.
The opposition will be of quality, made up of Iridia, the runner-up to Saint Godefroy in the Grand Cross de Mont-de-Marsan which was contested at Pont Long, and Gamsoul. The mare of Daniela Mele and Gilbert Lenzi unfortunately fell in the Grand Cross of Fontainebleau during her reappearance. Gamsoul, prepared by Eric Leray, returned to competition at Grands Pins in steeplechasing after an absence of a year and a half. Several times placed on the course that interests us, he won the Grand Cross of Fontainebleau on April 1, 2023.
Plethora of starters to finish
The Pure Arabian horses of the Wathba Stables Cup will be in the boxes at 11:50 a.m. in preparation for a rematch between Sawarim and Envy. The Prix Roger de Vazelhes is a nice tournament between Anglo-Arabs on the “big ones”, in which the first three in the national steeplechase of the breed, Fénomène d’Oc, Isisdelagarde and Jaroussky, will compete.
It is the latter who will have my preference because he showed his aptitude in Pau by winning the R.Chimits Prize on March 10, ahead of Jamailya whose candidacy is once again attracting attention.
Interrupted at 3:30 p.m. by a very busy hurdle race (17 runners) for Autres Que de Pur Sang, the series of split handicaps of the “divided” and its 48 participants will keep us busy until 4:40 p.m. A little more for those who will go through the counter to collect their winnings.
I offered you (timidly) in the reverse order of values La Fille de Berlin, Super Cute and Chief Red Cloud which is aiming for the three pass on the PSF.
