Five years after the death of Jean Boillereau, the emotion is still as strong as the post passes. Relatives of the professional who died at the age of 42 in August 2019 were there, in the photo, with Alexandre Abrivard and Inexcess Bleu. “I was not of his generation but he left much too soon, underlines Alexandre Abrivard. The Central East was there like every year, that’s what’s wonderful to see.” The Jean Boillereau Prize highlights a category just below the best horses on the field. Driven with confidence by Alexandre Abrivard, Inexcess Bleu goes on the attack at the intersection of the tracks, overflowing Ibiki de Houelle. In the straight line, it’s a formality for the son of Vittel de Brévol et Pearl of Charm who returns to the success that had eluded him since May 31. “I was confident with my horse so I didn’t hesitate to attack firstadds the winning driver. He gained the upper hand Ibiki de Houelle at the intersection of the tracks and won solidly.” Holder of more than 550,000 euros in winnings in 42 races, Alexandre Abrivard is not surprised by his trajectory: “He competed in the provincial grand prix all summer and clashed with top horses. He is better at Vincennes. He’s a fabulous horse. For several years it has been said that with Ino you Lupinthese are the future great geldings of the plateau. This is proving true over the months”.
The Bigeon team is back
Behind Inexcess Bleu, Hip Hop Haufor shows that he is on the right path as his trainer Christian Bigeon said a few days earlier. “He runs better and better, continues Damien Bonne with his driver. It’s been complicated lately, he’s getting back to the right level.” Same story for David Thomain with Haufor Gullgood third: “He finished very well and is coming back well after a slump. It’s good for the future.” Fourth, Éric Raffin was hungry with Ibiki de Houelle making him say: “He runs neither well nor badly. I didn’t have the real one What with me this Thursday”.
