Arrival of Quinté+
: 11 – 14 – 16 – 9 – 15
A specialist at the Cagnes-sur-Mer racecourse, where he signed his finest flagships,
Gaotcho Jiel
(n°11) put in a funny performance for his return to Paris-Vincennes, winning from start to finish in the Prix de Châteaurenard, the event this Friday evening.
Associated with the formidable Eric Raffin, the resident of Romuald Mourice got off to an excellent start.
Detached from the peloton in front of the stands, setting a steady pace, he was then overtaken for a short time by
Eureka Vrie
(n°16) at the top of the climb, but like a real “tough guy”, he started again shortly after entering the straight, and perfectly extended his effort, to the great joy of Emeline Jousset, Romuald's companion, who was present to accompany the team's darling: "It's magnificent the performance that 'he realizes this evening.
Romuald was convinced that the horse would be even better at Vincennes and he was right.
He signed the best performance of his career, having almost died in September when the truck caught fire on his way home from the races.
It's a great moment for the whole team, because
Gaotcho Jiel
holds an important place in our hearts.
