Very good three years under the saddle in the Urgent Prize at Vincennes

With its winnings ceiling positioned at 125,000 euros, the Urgent prize still allows for a very good field, with only the wealthiest of this generation being able to start. Therefore, it is very common for this Urgent prize to recognize one of the rising figures among the three-year-old generation, a rising figure which is often subsequently crowned at the highest level. To be convinced, let us cite the last winners, with KYRIELLE DE VAUX, JESSY DE BANVILLE, INSHORE, or GRACE DE FAEL, all elements which then took their place at the top of the hierarchy of this category.

This year, the result should be in the same range, since we will find in particular two colts who left a very big impression during their last races in the discipline, with LOOPING DAY (photo Scoopdyga) and LIONHEART. The first named was directly presented in a Group II for his first attempt under the saddle, in the Prix Louis Tillaye, and he did not “do things by halves”, since he won in a very good way , ahead of what is currently best among the ridden three-year-olds, LITTLE ORELIE and LEXIE DE BANVILLE, two previous Group I winners. A flattering line if ever there was one, LIONHEART has also caused a sensation since its beginnings, both harnessed and mounted. Indeed, with six victories in seven races, he is undefeated under the saddle, and he made a strong impression during his two successes in the discipline. Winner recently harnessed for his first round of the meeting, it is at the top that we will find him at the start, for a match which will be eagerly awaited, with therefore invincibility at stake.

That said, these two talented colts will not be the only ones to start with ambitions. Indeed, LOVISSIME has already shown great things, including against quality opposition, like LE VOYOU D'ALMO, authoritarian, but winner of Group III and second in Group II, or even LEARN TO FLY , confirmed and having just shown his harness form by winning in Mauquenchy. Let us also mention LOCHAN, like LOOPING DAY for Ecurie Hunter Valley, and fourth in the Saint-Léger des Trotteurs in Caen after a great victory here, or LABEL DE TILLARD, which could be improved…
