Arrival of the quinté:
7 - 5 - 4 - 10 - 6
On a heavy track and the distance of 1,600 meters, fourteen 3-year-old thoroughbreds competed in the quinté at Compiègne (Oise).
And the race confirmed that values are still evolving among these relatively young gallopers.
Newcomer in this category,
Sagamiyra
(n ° 7) has reached a new level.
Yet penalized by 8 pounds following his recent success in Angers, Cristian's partner not only passed the post in the lead, but she also imposed herself with a margin which suggests that her ascent is not over.
Rather accustomed to classic events, the jacket of His Highness Aga Khan shines for the second time in a few days in the quintés, after
Shalamba's
victory
at Saint-Cloud.
Clearly dominated in the benchmark event, in which he finished fourth,
First Sight
(n ° 5) made clear progress to surely seize the first runner-up ahead of
Sauzon
(n ° 4), who proves that he can get out difficult terrains.
Clearly behind, the favorite
Aiguière d'Argent
(n ° 10) had to be content with fourth place, without ever having had any illusions about the podium.
He is ahead of
African Gray
(n ° 6), courageous after having galloped at the forefront.
Highly
visible
after his success at the beginning of the month at Chantilly,
Haliphon
(n ° 2) has never given hope to his takers.
