Arrival of the quinté
: 5 - 2 - 7 - 16 - 15
The first Sunday quinté of the year at the Auteuil racecourse was set on a steeplechase course with 4,400 m to accomplish in sticky terrain for the sixteen competitors, aged 5 to 9, at the start.
Favorite of the event,
Enfant Roi
(n ° 5) fulfilled his contract with ease.
Quickly well placed, the partner of James Reveley approached in a significant action at the beginning of the last turn, to cross the ultimate difficulty with ease to go and seek a very easy victory.
He is clearly ahead of
Gaboriot
(n ° 2), constant extra, and
Milanesca
(n ° 7), whose end of the race did not go unnoticed after having been pointed at the rear for a long time.
She is fully rehabilitated after having fallen twice this winter in Pau in quintés.
Away from the leading trio,
Drop Flight
(n ° 16), one of the hosts, narrowly retains fourth place and ahead of
Filovent
(n ° 15), which precedes
Bandero
(n ° 13) and
Fanfaron Spécial
(n ° 9).
Note that
Sergeant Pepper's
(n ° 12) lost all chance on a big fault when crossing the tribunes river while
Cafertiti
(n ° 1) dropped his jockey in the middle of the line opposite.
Steavie Doussot and Halim Bouakkaz indicated the quartet out of order.
