“Last call before doors close”. No, we are not at Orly airport, although located not far from the ash (twenty kilometers), but indeed on the “America 2025 flight”. 15 days before the biggest meeting of the year, it’s the last battle to get your ticket, after which it will be too late!
They seek qualification
This time, their backs are clearly against the wall! Sunday around 3:20 p.m., between one and four entourages will party, for others the illusions will end. Don Fanucci Zet (D. Redén) does not yet have its place for the big Sunday, narrowly failing in the Prix du Bourbonnais – America Races Q2 (fifth). Same fight for one Gu d’Héripré (T.Duvaldestin) disappointing since the start of the meeting (8th in Cevennes, 6th in Bourbonnais and not placed in Burgundy).
Dimitri Ferm (M.Baroncini) was strong in the “Marcel Laurent” (second behind Jushua Tree) but failed in Bourbonnais and Burgundy), the same goes for Inmarosa (LC.Abrivard)unlucky since the start of the meeting. They still have one last chance.
Kana de Beylev (W.Bigeon) had tried her luck in the “Bretagne” (unplaced) and ranked fifth in the Criterium Continental. His task is not easy against the older ones. It’s A Dollarmaker (S.Guarato) is back after his coronation in the Finale du Grand National du Trot December 1st. He is one of the first chances this Sunday. And Ideal Ligneries (JP.Monclin) can dream of a place in the top four if he repeats his GNT performance.
Sébastien Guarato is counting on It’s a Dollarmaker this Sunday!
They are in doubt
Mister Hercules (D.Redén) finished ninth in the Prix de Bourgogne – America Races Q5on December 29. Trixton’s son was not helped by the incidents at the final turn. Eric The Eel (T.Malmqvist) has not been seen since a 6th place in a Golddivision on October 26 in Jagersro. It’s hard to know where he is.
They refine their condition for “America”
Hooker Berry (N.Bazire), Just Love You (LC.Abrivard) et Justin Bold (JR.Delliaux) are lucky enough to have had their ticket in their pocket for a few weeks for some, a few days for the last. They are running this Sunday to “get in shape”, “get in the laps”. As for Ampia Measures SM (E.Bondo)she would move on to winnings but needs to reassure those around her (8th and DAI in this meeting)
Hooker Berry, third in Q1 (Prix de Bretagne), without pressure this Sunday
They prepare the Cornulier a week later
More surprising, a week before their big test under the saddle, the Cornulier Prize, Happy and Lucky (F.Leblanc) et I Love Football (A.Lhérété) will be on the track, probably shod, to refine their condition.
