Arrival of the quinté:
14 - 10 - 12 - 6 - 7
Non runners:
n ° 2 (
Alfieri
) and n ° 16 (
On the Sea
)
In the middle of a gala Sunday, with the preparatory races for the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe (October 4), on the Bois de Boulogne racecourse, the quinté addressed aged horses, who were faced on the particular course of 1,400 m of the new track.
Coincidence or coincidence, the two competitors,
Alfieri
(n ° 2) and
On the Sea
(n ° 16), endowed with the most outside stalls, often crippling on this route, declined the fight.
They were therefore only fourteen at the start.
Better to gallop in the outposts to contemplate victory.
In any case, it was the two animators,
Prince Hamlet
(# 14) and
True Romance
(# 10), who composed the winning pair.
And indecision on the identity of the winner has long reigned.
After several minutes of waiting, the photograph named
Prince Hamlet
as the winner.
Tony Piccone's partner wins for the first time at this level.
Close by,
Millfield
(
No.12
) settles the fight for third place at the expense of
Dark American
(No.6) and the good finisher
Rimini
(No.7), the only competitor from a stall above 10 to appear in the right combination.
In a very close finish, it is worth noting the woes of
House of Kings
(No. 3),
Sandyssime
(No. 4) and
Rocquemont
(No. 1).
They could take their revenge in the equivalent event which will take place during the weekend of the Arc.
