Direction Vincennes this Friday, November 18, 2022 for the Tiercé-Quarté-Quinté +. In this event, the Prix Mizar will have to compete against each other as runners. The race will be contested over 2100 meters, and endowed with 51,000€.
In this event, Gamin Normand (5) was arrested after having recorded some interesting performances, in the spring, then at the beginning of the summer. Disqualified at the start for his comeback, he will logically need this race to come back to his best. He has never shone with his irons for nearly three years. Better to dismiss it.
Geny’s secrets
Stine Obstfelder: Exodus Brick (1) injured his foot while traveling to France last month. Everything is in order. Last year, he finished second for his first outing at Vincennes before experiencing a physical problem. It has good resources but it risks running out of competition. Fifth place would satisfy us.
Miss Anaïs Michel: Gaudepsou (2) was forced outside at Beaumont, which is often prohibitive on this ring. Previously, it had imposed itself on the course which interests us, trotting, once again, nose to the wind. On Friday, it will be imperative to hide the effort from him so as not to undermine his morale. He has never disappointed barefoot on this course and must finish in the top three.
Louis Baudouin: Galactée de Chenu (3) has been retained for this meeting, after its great success last winter. Here is his first big goal. She is stationed in Grosbois and is doing really well in training. There are Europeans but we expect very good value, especially since it has inherited a good number. In addition, she is able to go to the forefront as well as waiting.
Hansen Erik Bondo: A Wonder Bi (4) is ok at work and better at Vincennes. It adapts to all distances. She can go in front but is better coming from behind.
Erwin Bot: Jason Dragon (6) ran very well last time. So, I hope he will be in the top three-four. He is in good shape. It is better to come from behind, but can also go in front. He will appreciate the proposed course, on which he has already won.
Julien Raffestin: Galaxie de Flam (7) took a break this summer. She is an imposing mare and she has put on a lot of weight. She now has three races in her legs. Lately, she faced serious customers by being shod. I find it difficult to judge his level of form in training. I am counting, despite everything, on iron removal and tricks to see her run in progress and achieve a good performance.
Stine Obstfelder: Gardner Shaw (8) found himself blocked recently, on this course, and could not speak until late. On its previous outing, it took third place in a good field. It is on top and ideally engaged, but it must start outside. That said, it does very well on autostart. He has his place in the top five.
Pierre Belloche: Winner Mesloise (9) got angry on the martingale recently when she was very well in training in this configuration. She followed well behind. She had become nervous this summer. She is very good at work and the commitment is tailor-made. In addition, the autostart will benefit it. I know it is not easy to recommend, but I expect a rehabilitation.
James Liccardo: Alcarro Light (10) was not at his best during his last performances but that is just a bad memory. It gives satisfaction to the exercise. He can take a place.
Hansen Erik Bondo: Even Steven (11) is better over long distances but there is no choice of commitments. We will see what it will give. It’s a bit of a test, but I think it’s going to need a few runs before it’s ready.
Jean-Michel Bazire: Criterion (12) has defended himself well on several occasions lately. His recent outing under saddle is good. It is still at its best and the entry remains correct. By starting in the second line, he can again grab a place.
Christian Douillet: Gravaleta (13) got off to a fairly quick start last time and I believe that was detrimental to him in the end. During its previous outing, it ran very well at Reims. She is stuck in front, because I find her more comfortable that way. It’s a bit of a distance too. It will depend on the route, because you have to hide it. If it goes well, she can be in the top five.
Jean-Michel Bazire: Mateo de Rêve (14) quickly proved to be at fault on Sunday at Vincennes, at a mounted trot. Previously, he had done well in this specialty. His passage under the saddle may have done him good. I have only driven him once since he arrived at the stable. I hope he will be applied for his return to the trot. A place is within reach.
Jean-Marc Maurice Riaud: Mad Princess (15) recently arrived at the stable. It will benefit from a good program on the Côte d’Azur. She shows herself to be manageable in training, but she risks lacking the condition to do well, from the outset, on the 2,100 meters of the main track at Vincennes. This race has test value. She won’t have the easy part.
