Arrival of the fifthis : 6 – 11 – 8 – 10 – 15

The style of his success confirms this since this 4-year-old male quickly took on his responsibilities by taking command and was never really worried by his adversaries on the day. Third in a fifth on March 21 at Compiègne, he shines for the first time at this level of the competition, just like his trainer, Caroline Rondelé-Lancelin, who did not hide her emotion at the microphone of Equidia: “I wish everyone to have such a horse. He has run nine times and his worst performance is a fourth place. As for his 24-year-old jockey, he won his fifth event race.
After having modeled his race on the winner, Cosmas (n°11) has never succeeded in worrying him for success but still achieves a very good value. Highbari (n°8) confirms its suitability for the ParisLongchamp track and obtains its fourth podium in as many outings. Regular in this category of large handicaps, Have Dancer (n°10) finishes once again in the good combination of the fifth by ranking fourth in front of The Manifesto (n°15).
Kevin Romain indicated the fourth in order as well as the fifth out of order in eight horses.
