Like last year, Fantaisie won the Prix du Calvados, the last preparatory event for the Prix du Cornulier (January 22). She is ahead


Horse racing is often considered an outdated sport or reserved for insiders.

However, organizers did not wait until the 22nd century to use video to judge gaits or reprehensible behavior during events.

Yesterday, at Paris-Vincennes,

Fantaisie

and

Fado du Chêne

, who respectively finished first and second in the Prix du Calvados (Gr. II), were put on the grill after the event because of paces that could be legitimately reprehensible.

Finally, the winner and her runner-up, who will meet in the Prix de Cornulier (Gr. I), top of the year under saddle, contested on January 22, have not lost the benefit of their efforts.

“These are long minutes, confided, relieved, Nicolas Bridault, the coach of the winner.

My mare gave her maximum again.

It would have been infuriating to be disqualified.

Let's go to Le Cornulier now even if running a fortnight is perhaps less good than with a month apart.

But we have the right to dream.
