Arrival of the quinté: 15 - 12 - 13 - 3 - 14
He had not hidden his confidence in our columns.
Ludovic Philipperon made the right choice by deciding to ride
Foreign Flower
(n ° 15) rather than Brother Bernard (n ° 16), with whom he had just won and thus had to justify his choice: “He will be much better at Auteuil. rather than in Compiègne ”.
The words of the 31-year-old jockey took on their full meaning this Saturday for the Prix du Prince d'Ecouen.
Indeed, at the end of a very good straight line, his partner managed to win, winning for the occasion his first quinté.

To do this, he had to overcome
Grand Uncle
(n ° 12), who seems promised a success at this level even though he had previously done his best in steeplechase.
Second favorite of the event behind
Spinozzar
(n ° 5), who appeared before weakening in the final phase, Elvis de Balme (n ° 13) managed to keep third place at the expense of
Pollexfen
(n ° 3), the only competitor to have remained on the rope side to finish.
Good finisher,
Clondaw Clan
(n ° 14) completes the good combination of this quinté.
