Arrival of the fifth : 7 – 10 – 12 – 4 – 1
405! This is the number of days we had to wait Dolavis (n°7) to reconnect with success. However, the nine-year-old gelding behaved well on each of his outings and even finished second in a similar event last year on this track in Enghien. This time, Jean-François Senet’s protege did not miss the target, patiently driven by his coach, who did not hide his joy at the post. “I’m not used to winning this kind of event, he says at the microphone of Equidia, the one who won his ninth quinté as a driver, the seventh as a developer. He is a horse that is always there over time. Engagements as favorable with aged horses are not legion in Paris. ” And Dolavis perfectly met the expectations of those around him to win the seventh success of his career, the first in an event.
Long pointed out in the wake of the animators, Crack Trump (n°10) hesitated in his gait at the start of the straight, otherwise he might have won. He can’t do anything against the winner but surely resists Duang Taa (n°12), whose stay in Corsica was beneficial to him. Duke of Oak (n°4) settles for fourth place ahead of tilou dragon (n°1).
Disappointment with the favorites. Dorun Beam (n°16) launched in the opposite line, did not manage to sustain his effort until the end while Cytnhtia (n°15) has never given its takers any illusions.
