Arrival of the fifth:
15 - 6 - 11 - 4 - 5
The quinté of the day was set at the Paris-Vincennes racecourse.
This European race brought together sixteen competitors, aged 6 to 9, on the classic course of 2,700 m.
The favorites emerged with the victory of
Goéland d'Haufor
(No. 15), acclaimed by bettors with odds of 5.2/1.
Located in seventh or eighth position, he rounded his opponents in third thickness with his nose to the wind to take the advantage a little less than a thousand meters from goal before producing his acceleration and containing the lively attack of
Cyrano of B
.
Goéland d'Haufor
thus erases his disqualification of December 28 by resuming the course of his successes. He easily won his third victory during the winter meeting. “The last time, it was raining, and he was not comfortable on the track, explains his trainer Christian Bigeon at the microphone of Equidia. He showed a different face today, came back perfectly on the straight when he was attacked. It is very good. »

The favourite,
Cyrano de B
(No. 6), galloped behind the leaders and showed courage to take second place. It confirms its excellent level of form by responding once again to this course. Arriving third, U
Sain Toll
(No. 11) also fulfilled his contract. Erik Bondo's representative was covered by
Goéland d'Haufor
before making a fine final effort, without being able to threaten the first two.
Gold Mencourt
(n° 4) creates a little surprise at the finish of this event (50/1). Close to the leading group, he took great strides when his driver Guillaume Martin asked him to speed up. Another outsider,
Giovanni Bianco
(#5) ranks fifth.
Armor As
(n° 8) and
Eawy d'Eole
(n° 16) were at fault and were disqualified.
Steavie Doussot indicated the quartet in the disorder in seven horses.
