Arrival of the fifth:
7 - 13 - 5 - 2 - 8
Between tears and modesty.
After the arrival of the Prix d'Eaubonne, Michaël Izzo (nicknamed Mike), trainer driver of
Fossoyeur
(No. 7), and his father Jean-Philippe, a former international football referee and owner of the 7-year-old trotter, were overwhelmed with emotion.
“I rarely come to Paris and did not hesitate to respond to your newspaper on Thursday, because I was confident, confides the last named.
Moreover, I am not superstitious, and this victory shows that it does not bring anything to be.
A few meters further on, like a football player after a goal, he let out a cry of joy and relief as he headed for the stables.
It must be said that his son, Mike Izzo, presented his first starter as a mentor on July 11 only and thus won the first quinté of his career whether as a coach or a driver.
To build this success, he was patient, after a good start.
As soon as he had the opportunity to shift his protege mid-straight, the latter sprinted perfectly to win the bet.
He is ahead of another good finisher, namely
Zante Laser
(No. 13), long pointed at the back, who had taken the measure of the favorite,
Elgino
(No. 5), finally third.

After a tight course,

Figaro Gema
(n° 11).
As the latter was disqualified after investigation, the good combination of the quinté is finally completed by
Enerise Flash
