Arrival of the fifth: 11 – 8 – 10 – 1 – 7
During his last two outings, March shower (n° 11) was at fault, something which does not resemble him. Fortunately for her takers and her entourage, the 6-year-old mare remained at a trot, putting an end to this bad patch. Perfectly driven by Franck Nivard, the student of Frédéric Senet won with a certain ease. “It was a good race for her, and she took advantage of it,” said her driver at the microphone of Equidia, who won her 241st quinté. And to add: “We have often had success with his coach and this victory makes me happy. A joy shared by Frédéric Senet, who won for the second time in this category. “It was a great drive from Franck Nivard, loose the person concerned. She is an endearing mare. »
Even if she was the poorest of the second starting echelon, Gaia d’Occagnes (No. 8) managed to stand out, being very tenacious in the final phase to retain the first runner-up at the expense of Guerande (#10). In slight retreat, Gazelle de Val (n° 1) made a good end of the race and deprived the race favorite of fourth place, Gazette de Lou (n° 7).
Stéphan Flourent indicated the fifth in disorder in eight horses.
