Not very happy during his last outing, during which he did not have free rein, the latter was able this time to benefit from a limpid course over the 1,300 m of the PSF of Deauville racecourse. Ridden for the occasion by Morgan Delalande, his usual jockey, Théo Bachelot, being absent, Magic Vati came to the end of Fayathaan (n ° 2). The latter, ridden by Christophe Soumillon, whose return to France was, nevertheless seemed set off for glory as he took the best with undeniable resources at the mid-straight line. It was without counting on the final rush of one of the premises of the stage as was specified and highlighted in our edition this Friday.
