The highlight of this final meeting on the banks of the Allier, the Prix du Puy de Sancy (class 1) went to the favourite Pay To Learnwho was logically very prominent. Possessing flattering origins, the son of Kingman And Falling Leaves thus won a third success in six races. Dominated after a fight for a place in a listed race at the Clairefontaine-Deauville racecourse, Francis-Henri Graffard’s pupil won with authority, repelling the assault of Sir Siljan to finish. “The horse doesn’t particularly like this kind of soft track, he has a low action. I tried to take a more favorable section of track and avoid the holes, so that he wouldn’t make any mistakes. We weren’t very fast, and I took the lead quite early, he is intact and when he takes command, he has a tendency to recover a little. He is still an immature horse, but he confirms what we expect of him,” said its pilot Alexis Pouchin.
