Galius
was quickly placed in the lead by Yoann Lebourgeois. On this little-used 3,000m long Vincennes track, the winner never seemed in difficulty, as his driver confirmed: “I was able to take him on a regular train, without going fast either. Everything went well, and I never felt there was a dangerous attack. When I entered the straight, I really threw it, and we were never worried. "
The words of the Norman pilot confirm the progress of the final phase during which
Gangster du Wallon
(n ° 10), winner of Group I at the mounted trot, finished in a pleasant way to take second place at the expense of
Ganay. de Banville
(n ° 12), the first to have tried to question the superiority of the future winner at the top of the climb. Despite a good run, the favorite,
Go On Boy
(n ° 11) failed at the foot of the podium and beat the courageous Goût Baroque (n ° 9).
