Arrival of the fifth: 13 – 10 – 17 – 7 – 9
On the unique 1,400m course of the Val d’Or racecourse, competitors who are fast on their legs and moving to the front are often at an advantage, especially when the ground is good, as was the case on the eve of Monday Pentecost. Yet he is a wait-and-see, namely Monarchic (n° 13), which won the prize. In the absence of a red carpet, the grassy straight of Saint-Cloud (Hauts-de-Seine) allowed Mickaël Barzalona’s partner to show his best face, as confirmed by his jockey at the Equidia microphone: “With this number 14 in the starting stalls, you could leave and see or wait and hope! We took the second option, and he picked up ground all the way down the straight. »
