Arrival of the fifth: 16 – 3 – 5 – 10 – 6
The first quinté of the week, disputed on the Lyon-Parilly racecourse, went to the competitor carrying the least weight, namely Salduro (#16). Ridden by Hugo Besnier, this competitor trained across the Rhine did not cut corners by winning from start to finish over 2,000m. As the attacks began to take shape at the start of the straight, the 6-year-old gelding got off to a great start to go and seek the greatest success of a career that only began at the end of last year. This is to say if he may not have revealed his full potential. “I didn’t want to suffer the race so I went ahead, analyzes Hugo Besnier after the event. I did what I wanted the whole way. It is very well what he is doing today. »
Despite a very bad number in the stalls and by repercussion a race carried out in thickness, Thunderspeed (n° 3) grabbed a courageous second place under the grip of Maxime Guyon and clearly outstripped Free Electron (n° 5), which is recovering after a series of disappointing results. Good finishers, Shamsabad (#10) and Morsan (No. 6) complete a good combination in which the favorite, Go With The Wind (No. 7), could not interfere.
