Arrival of the fifth:
9 - 4 - 13 - 11 - 7
“The mare is very good, and the jockey exceptional.
They do not miss the Group I days: they are two champions united.
» Laurent-Claude Abrivard, rarely dithyrambic, savored the victory of his resident,
Hanna des Moles
, (n° 9) ridden by his son Alexandre, during the Prix de l'Île-de-France (Gr. I).
The latter thus continues her flawless performance in the specialty of mounted trotting: in four attempts under the saddle, she won three times and took third place!
Given the imposed distance of 2,175 m, the show was assured, and this was confirmed on the track.
Under the impulse of the two residents of Franck Leblanc,
Freeman de Houelle
(n° 10) and
Happy and Lucky
(n° 6), dominated in the final phase, the rhythm was regular.
Still in ambush,
Hanna des Molles
and Alexandre Abrivard left their opponents no chance in the final phase at the Paris-Vincennes racecourse (12th), especially as the big favorite,
Granvillaise Bleue
(n° 13) , showed signs of weakness coming out of the final bend and had to settle for an honorable third place.
🏆 How easy, how easy!
𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗮 𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝘀 (𝟵) (A. Abrivard / L.-C. Abrivard) wins the Prix de l'Île-de-France #Cornulier Races like the greatest!
👉🏼 New disappointment for 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘂𝗲!

Fourth in the Cornulier and in the last edition of this Prix de l'Île-de-France,
Vaprio
(n°4) could do nothing against the final rush of the winner but confirmed all her quality to seize the first runner-up .
“He again performed well, confides his partner Nathalie Henry.
I suspected that I had taken the advantage a little quickly, but he extended well to the post.
He is 9 years old but is more hardened and better and better in his head.
” Set back from the first three,
Zarenne Fas
(No. 11) and
Hirondelle du Rib
(No. 7), who had to progress in thickness, complete the good combination of a low-paying fifth but recommended in five horses by Kévin Romain.
