Arrival of the fifth
: 1 - 4 - 5 - 3 - 14
The third stage of the Grand National du Trot (GNT), contested in Reims, finally returned to
Girolamo
(#1).
A newcomer to Antoine Lhérété's stables, this 6-year-old colt only needed four races to make his new entourage shine.
Constantly seen at the forefront, he went on the offensive down the straight and left his opponents no chance.
“It's not a surprise for me, confides the one who wins the third quinté of his career, at the microphone of Equidia.
He was coming back to form and today everything went like a dream.
» This quality horse is therefore talking about him again after a slump linked in particular to foot problems.
He had not won since May 19, 2020. As tradition dictates, the winning driver was rewarded with his weight in champagne.

Like the winner,
Fragonard Délo
(n°4) was for a long time in the leading group and finished well.
After having waited along the rope,
Félix du Bourg
(n°5) drew a good end of the race and stole third place from the great leader,
Day de Bellouet
(n°3), who is not unworthy.
Slightly behind,
Eire d'Helios
(n°14), the only competitor in the 25m, completes the good combination of the fifth.
