Arrival of the quinté : 4 – 10 – 16 – 15 – 6
Reserved only for 6-year-olds, the Prix de Vic-sur-Cère, the quinté of the day gave pride of place to foreign trotters since nine participants out of the sixteen competitors at the start of this European race, which is 2,850 m long, were born out of our borders. Presented by Jarmo Niskanen and driven by Franck Ouvrie, Cyrano by B. (n ° 4) has imposed itself in peace and confirms its rise after its two runners-up obtained this winter on the Parisian ash.
With a simple acceleration, this 6-year-old Swedish gelding got rid of his opponents as soon as they entered the finish line and is clearly ahead, Gold River (n ° 10), whose brilliant end of the race allowed him to steal the accessit of honor from the favorite, Gamay de l’Iton (n ° 16), one of the animators. Away from the leading trio, Gipson Creek (n ° 15) completes the arrival of the quartet and precedes Gin Tonic Duran (n ° 6). Disappointment with Armour As (n ° 8), came up to the leading horses at the start of the last turn before falling into line during the final acceleration.
To note that Tabasco C.D. (n°5), Amour Del Ronco (n ° 1) and Svecak bunch (n ° 3) were at fault from the start imitated in the descent by Gain Ultime (n°12).
