Haute Côte de Nuit (1) traced a good course last on the 2,700 meters of Vincennes and will return to a reduced course, which it has not taken for some time. The resident of Enzo Lelièvre inherited number 1, which can be tricky, but she should play the leading roles in this quinté. Our expert Bruno Jolivet made it his favorite. He was also attracted by the candidacy ofHappy du Bois (4)very regular in the provinces, which he placed in second position in his selection. Behind these two good points of support, it may also be necessary to count on Hermès Pat (14)the most successful horse at the start of the race. Hermes de Clopeau (11)which will be led by Éric Raffin, and Hella de Jana (10)in a good dynamic, also deserve credit. Finally, to complete his selection, Bruno Jolivet detaches the applications from Goodmorning Charly (6)d’Hip Hop de Madker (2)andHarcouel (7).
Bruno Jolivet’s prediction in ParisTurf: 1 – 4 – 14 – 11 – 10 – 6 – 2 – 7
“100% Quinté” show: Romain Porée also chooses Haute Côte de Nuit
In the show “100% Quinté”, Romain Porée presented the selection of his favorite horses. Like Bruno Jolivet, he retained High Night Coast as the first choice in his prediction. Here are some excerpts from the show available on the YouTube page of ParisTurf.
High Night Coast (1) : “She had an honorable year in 2024. She obtained only one victory but many places, which gives her a nice success percentage. This mare has had better lots and is with number 1 in this race, which can be a trap. She is barefoot on all four feet and has the green emoji. She has a lot going for her and is, in my opinion, a good favorite.”
Happy du Bois (4) : “He remains on a good performance on the Vire side. He inherited a good number behind the autostart, 4. All these elements mean that we can see him as a candidate for the first places.”
Hermès Pat (14) : “On its best value, it is completely downgraded. Things have changed since then, but he just ran well on December 20 at Vincennes, posting a good time. He will certainly have to wait with his number 14 behind the wings of the autostart, but he seems to be a pretty serious possibility for the places.”
Hermes de Clopeau (11) : “This competitor has strengths, he has been given a green emoji, he is tackled with all four feet and will be driven by Éric Raffin. He has a chance despite his number 11 in the second row.”
Hip Hop de Madker (2) : “This is a horse that should be featured near the head. This is a possibility for places.”
