Arrival of the fifth
: 6 - 2 - 10 - 5 - 3
The first quinté of the week was set at the Cantilian racecourse.
This big handicap disputed on a flexible track put sixteen horses aged 4 to 9 years old against each other on the long course of 3000 meters.
The victory went to
Dojo
(n°2) which did not miss its debut in this category.
Winner when he came back on February 24 on this Chantilly track, he confirmed his rise to power, despite his five-pound penalty.
Entrusted to Stéphane Pasquier, this 5-year-old gelding remains undefeated in two outings this year to the great satisfaction of his trainer, Pascal Bary who declared on Equidia's microphone: “He has not raced much and has made a lot of progress.
It was a good 3 years before his accident.
I am delighted with his victory.

Finishing one length behind the winner, the favorite
Belgian Prince
(n°2) once again behaved remarkably by taking the first runner-up.
After waiting close to the leading horses, he accelerated well and sustained his effort until the end.
Absent from the competition since his victory on November 9 in Amiens,
La Templière
(n°10) is carrying out a convincing comeback race.
It thus proves its competitiveness in 36 of value on the occasion of its third attempt at this level of competition.
Mounted patiently, she made an excellent end of the race to take third place.
Fourth finish,
Port Deauville
(n°5) sets the record straight after three failures in this type of test.
Already winner of two quintés, it demonstrates for the occasion that it will still be necessary to reckon with it at this level.
Failing by a header for fourth place,
Goya Senora
(n°3) completes the finish.
Stephan Flourent indicated the trifecta in disorder in 7 horses while Kevin Romain and Steavie Doussot proposed it in eight horses.
