Nothing can replace participation in the Prix d'Amérique (Gr. I).
Pierre Pilarski, co-owner of
Face Time Bourbon,
whose package was announced on Tuesday, was still heartbroken thanks to the victory of
Eagles Eyes
on Tuesday at the Riviera racecourse.

Quickly well placed, the one who wears the same colors as
Bold Eagle
, left no chance to his rivals.
When his trainer-driver, Nicolas Ensch, decided to accelerate at the end of the opposite line, none of his opponents were able to follow him.
The victory achieved, it remained to be seen who would emerge victorious from the fight for the places.
For once,
Eberton
(No. 3) showed good behavior at the end of the 2,925m long course.
He thus took second place despite the excellent end of the race by
Eusebio d'Héripré
(n°8).
Long seen at the back of the pack, he could have offered the winning pair to his mentor, Nicolas Ensch, but his performance bodes well for a good end to winter.
Among the most neglected competitors,
Diva Beauregard
(n°2) proved to be very courageous all along the straight.
Even if she fails at the foot of the podium, she has spiced up the reports of this event and is ahead of
Estero
(n° 5), whose end of race is most encouraging.
