Arrival of Quinté+
: 7 – 9 – 6 – 12 – 2
Barefoot unlike his last outings,
Fakir de l'Aulne
(n°7), was the strongest in the Prix de la Gironde, the Sunday Quinté+ in the temple of trotting.
Favorite among bettors, he delivered the best performance of his career.
Having come to join the leading group in the descent, he was then forced to carry out several stints at the front.
Overwhelmed by
Fulmida
(n°6) at the exit of the final turn, the resident of Camille Jean, launched himself perfectly along the rope, signing his fifteenth success in competition, and the first in the temple of trotting at the age 9 years old.
He was associated with Eric Raffin, who had fun driving him: “He was really strong today, because the course was not easy, having to counter several attacks.
He hadn't been unshod for quite some time, which worked in his favor.
It's great to see him win a Quinté+ at Vincennes, having won the beaches trophy in the past.

Waiting for a long time during the course,
Feeling Boy
(n°9) made up a lot of ground in the final phase, managing to take second place ahead of
Fulmida
(n°6), who skewed a lot in the straight, finishing his journey all outside.
Unlucky at the top of the climb,
Filou Smiling
(n°12), found himself quite far away in the final turn, but he sprinted well to deprive
Feel Smart
(n°2), offered at 73/1, of the fourth place.
Note that
Furieuse Purle
(n°13) and
Dandy Gédé
(n°14) have been declared non-starters since yesterday.
