Arrival of the fifth:
12 - 7 - 11 - 1 - 2
First attempt, master stroke for
Lady Pink
(No. 12).
The mare trained by Stéphane Wattel started on the fiber sand track with all the doubts that entails.
Finally, the three-year-old filly overcame them all by beating her opponents of the day with ease at the Chantilly racecourse (Oise).
“I had no idea about his ability to sand, recognizes the coach who won his 76th quinté.
In the morning, we don't have the truth.
We have the answer on track in the afternoon.
We knew she was a filly with a handicap in her legs.
It is very good that it is in a fifth.
It's always nice to shine in this category.
For
Lady Pink
, this is his first success at this level after three unsuccessful outings.
As for his partner, Alexis Pouchin, he now has seven wins in fifths.
🏆 𝗟𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗣𝗶𝗻𝗸 (@pouchinalexis / S. Wattel) won its first Quinté+ this Tuesday at Chantilly in the Prix de la Chambre de Monsieur le Prince.
3rd Quinté+ of the year for the tandem A. Pouchin - S. Wattel after Moon Wolf and Flyingbeauty.

Unlike the winner, who quickly found herself at the forefront,
Great Rotation
(n°7) waited at the back of the peloton before drawing a very attractive straight line to take the first runner-up.
Slightly behind,
Samapy
(n° 11) grabbed third place ahead of
Bonheur Bleu
(n° 1) and
Mashmedia
(n° 2).
Big disappointment with the favourite, Lion's Mane (No. 5), who never gave the slightest hope to his takers.
