Arrival of the fifth: 1 - 12 - 7 - 8 - 6
Winning two handicaps in a row is not within the reach of all horses but is not an isolated case either. In great shape and with a field even more to his liking than during his last coronation, since it has firmed up, Filup (No. 1) has doubled the bet despite three kilos of penalty. In this starving quinté, which brought together only twelve competitors, the 8-year-old gelding benefited from a perfect course offered by his jockey, Geoffrey Ré, to double the bet.
🥇The top-weight Filup (G.Ré) doubles the bet and wins in the Quinté+ of the day to #Auteuil!

Despite a good end of the race, Mandarin Basc (No. 12) could not get back up his rival and failed to a head of the boarder of Sylvain Dehez, but proves that he has his say on the hill Mortemart, he who had especially shone in the provinces so far. Behind the first two, Toscana du Berlais (No. 7) can leave regrets to its takers. If he hadn't hung the last hurdle, he could have warmed up the first two. Long at the front, Hurrick des Obeaux (No. 8) had to admit defeat but was brave to resist High Idea (No. 6), which completes the good combination of this quinty.
