The big favorite of Quinté + this Wednesday in Reims, Hedic Gema (n°15) won without firing a shot. 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." The son of Cape Verdean thoroughbred Akim finished in second place, with Hailey d'Ourville in third and Choir Ferfay in fourth. In our columns, Dimitri Fortin indicated the good combination of Quinte + in the disorder in eight horses. The winner of the Quinté + race at Reims will be announced on Thursday. The race will be shown live on the Canal de Reims.
