In this great meeting on the Parisian cinder, with no less than four group-labeled races, two will be dedicated to mounted trotting: the Price Hemine (Gr.2) and the Prix Gai Brillant (Gr.2). 3-year-old fillies will be honored in the first. They will then give way to the foals at the end of the meeting. 2700 meters will be covered. The first three of each race will benefit from a priority of participation for the Trial Prize (Gr.1)on June 26.
R1C2 – Prix Hemine – Group 2 – Mounted – 2700 meters
So we will start with the 3-year-old fillies. They will be only eight at the start on the Gravelle plateau. We will find in particular Juno of Leard. The resident ofAlexis Philippe Grimault will be the richest of the lot, by far. Since her career start last November, she has always mastered her subject (5 wins in 6 races). In addition, we must put his only “defeat” into perspective since it is a second place of very little behind Jordan who will not be present this Saturday. With Paul Ploquinthey know their competitors very well in this Price Hemine. Indeed, she has already faced and beaten them all. It is very likely that Junon du Léard will offer us a new recital this Saturday.
His main opponent should be Jipsy du Noyer. This filly of Sébastien Guarato had taken the first runner-up last time in the Prix Ali Hawas (Gr.2). These results are very good, of course, but she has never managed to beat Juno of Leard. It will be the first time she has run such a long distance. To see if she manages to go the distance. Joyful finished very well in the Grand Prix Ali Hawas, narrowly failing for second place. This representative of Mathieu Mottier should also be an animation of this Group 2.
R1C8 – Prix Gai Brillant – Group 2 – Mounted – 2700 meters
At the end of the meeting, the foals will set off to get their ticket for the Trial Prize (Gr.1). In this batch, we do not find a starter like Juno of Leard who masters all his subjects. The one who stands out is Jaspers Turgotthe foal trained by Franck Anne. Since he was launched at the mounted trot, his performances have been irreproachable with two victories in three races, only beaten by… Juno of Leard. This son of Korean (winner of Continental Criterium and you 4-year-old criterium in 2002) won quite easily in the last preparatory, the Felicien Gauvreau Prize on March 25. If we project ourselves into the Trial Priceit is not impossible that we will once again witness a fine duel between Juno of Leard et Jaspers Turgot as we saw in the Price of Cholet which turned to the advantage of the filly.
The podium of Felicien Gauvreau Prize will be totally present this Saturday. In effect, Jackpot du Choquel et Prior Jubilee will try to take their revenge in this Brilliant Gay Award. Note that the developers of Jolly Roger, Jab de Mye et Georges of Guez put a green emoji for their foal.
