Arrival of the fifth
: 11 - 3 - 12 - 4 - 14 or 11 - 12 - 3 - 4 - 14
The handicapper must be delighted since the first four of the fifth end in a pocket handkerchief, separated in less than half a length.
Contested on the fiber sand track of Chantilly (Oise), this 1,600 m long handicap was won in a hard fight by
Roberto Mount
(n°11).
Introduced by Rodolphe Collet, this 5-year-old gelding followed in the wake of the leader,
Rock Joyeux
(n°8), as soon as the starting stalls opened before taking the best mid-straight.
Well supported by his jockey, Marc Nobili, he was very courageous in the final phase and resisted the double attack from
Dar Toungi
(n°3) and
Ciccio Boy
(n°12), who finished on the same line and share second place.
A 1⃣er Quinté+ for 𝐑𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐨 𝐌𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭!

Excellent during his last three attempts and third last month at this level,
Roberto Mount
finds a just reward for his efforts by winning his first quinté for his ninth participation and allows his jockey to win for the fifth time at this level. .
After a long wait,
Billabong Cat
(n°4) finished in a pleasant action, but failed by only one head for the podium.
Away from the leading quartet, the quinté is completed by
Agapi Mia
(n°14), which precedes
Le Nomade
(n°1) and
Central Park West
(n°10), certainly the good mark of this event.
Our Synthesis indicated the fifth out of order in six horses.
