Rising value in this generation of 5-year-olds,
Hip Hop Haufor
(n° 7) confirms its rise in power and seizes second place, despite having had to evolve with its nose to the wind, at the expense of the big favourite,
Honeck
(n° 14).
At the foot of the podium, we find
Hokkaido Jiel
(n° 10), who showed his best face.
Slightly behind the representative of Jean-Luc Dersoir,
Horsy Dream
(No. 4) deprived
