Arrival of the quinté
: 15 - 5 - 9 - 10 – 11
Excellent right-hander,
Hedic Gema
(n°15) got off to a great start and very quickly erased his initial handicap of twenty-five meters, which is no easy feat on the Reims racecourse. Falling into the lead on the first pass in the opposite line, the son of
Akim from Cape Verde
then controlled the race as he pleased before leaving his rivals behind in the final phase. Benjamin Rochard, over the moon, declared on the Equidia microphone: “he was really very calm today, so I was able to get a good start. Then he controlled the whole route and I shot it to the post. It's a horse that ran in tougher fields, so once in front, we were not bad. He can be too nervous sometimes but that wasn't the case today; he was perfect. »
Quickly in the lead then in the wake of the future winner,
Hailey d'Ourville
(n°5) was unable to follow him in the last two hundred meters and retained a clear second place. It was then closer for the third step on the podium.
In Choir Ferfay
(n°9), constantly seen near the leaders, finally resisted
Horace des Champs
(n°10), who himself barely retained fourth place ahead of
Hélencio
(n°11), who came from the rearguard finished very well in the middle of the track.
