PRICE OF ROUERGUESATURDAY 07 MAY
PARIS-VINCENNES – 2100 METERSDEPARTURE: 3:15 PM
The forces present
Winner four times since the beginning of the year, including twice on this speed course, FINE COLLINE (5) approaches this meeting at the peak of its form. Ideally located behind the wings of the autostart, it also brilliantly won the Prix de la Lorraine, the key race on April 16. Before the coup, this resident of Matthieu Abrivard has nothing against her. Slightly disappointing this winter, DOMINGO D’ELA (2) has now regained its full potential, as evidenced by its last two results. His return to a speed course is under favorable auspices.
Triple represented, Jean-Michel Bazire will take up the sulky of VALZER DI POGGIO (4), who has just finished in a good action in the Prix du Tréport. The valiant CRESCENDIS (1) has no leeway at this level, but this number one will allow her to « shave the walls ». Therefore, a surprise on his part is possible.
ZACCARIA BAR (6) has serious titles in Italy and returns to France before high ambitions, as Alessandro Giocciadoro told our reporters. If they negotiate their position well outside, VICTOR FERM (8) and COPSI (7) have their say for places. DREAMER DE CHENU (3) is competitive in sheer value, but he absolutely has to run beaten to show his full potential, a tactic that carries serious risks.

The starters in detail and the opinion of the pros
1 –
This student of Jean-François Senet always gives the best of herself, but no longer has any leeway in this category. This number will allow him to « shave the walls » and not produce the slightest superfluous effort. For a rating.
Jean-François Senet, trainer and driver:
“Crescendis (1) was up against a strange lot last time, but she was not unworthy. Her task will not be easy again, but my mare is in great shape in the morning. With a good running of the race, I wouldn’t be surprised to see her take fourth or fifth place. »
2 –
After a slight slump at the end of last year, this class subject has now recovered all its sensations. Moreover, he finds a course on which he has never disappointed in six tries. Right in its category, it looks formidable.
Jean-Philippe Borodajko, trainer and driver:
“Domingo d’Ela (2) is in great shape. We were lucky in the draw for places behind the autostart. Everything is ok to approach this entry, especially since he has already succeeded over this distance. Of course, the opposition is strong, with real speed course specialists, but I hope to take an active part at the finish. »
3 –
Regularly unlucky, this wait-and-see distinguished himself in top-flight lots during the winter. He enjoys this course of speed and his last two failures include excuses. Well placed behind the wings of the car, it deserves a note of suspicion.
Louis Baudouin, son of the trainer:
“Dreamer de Chenu (3) needs to reassure us. The route proposed this Saturday should serve his interests. It will have to be raced to save money, but if it has a good run, it can restore its image by taking up a place. »
4 –
Very disappointing during the winter, this Italian trotter has just shown a clear recovery in form in the Prix du Tréport. Jean-Michel Bazire, who has not driven it since November, is taking it back in hand. At the end of a clear course, his place is at the finish.
Nicolas Bazire, son of the trainer:
“Valzer Di Poggio (4) has taken the bad habit of not starting frankly. Nothing catastrophic, but he stupidly wastes time. The fact of finding the autostart should serve its interests. We have tried to prepare as well as possible for this objective. It will be necessary to count on a good course, because it is better in running hidden. If everything goes as we hope, he will play a good role. »
5 –
This formidable finisher has undeniably reached a milestone since the start of the year. Undefeated on this course by being unshod from the previous ones, she also won the key race with great authority. Thanks to a package, she can start from the front row. Everything to please.
Loïc-Desiré Abrivard, collaborator of the coach:
“Fine Colline (5) has been booming since the beginning of the year. It brings us great satisfaction. Everything has been going well for her since her victory on April 16 and we were able to prepare for this race as we wanted. Once again, we are counting on her to play a very good role. »
6 –
For his only test in France, in the 2021 edition of the Prix Jean-René Gougeon (Gr.3), this Italian horse had taken off at the start of the straight line when he had resources. It is susceptible, but has nothing to envy its rivals in pure value. Distrust of rigor.
Alessandro Gocciadoro, coach:
“Zaccaria Bar (6) is a very complicated horse to use, but he has class. For several weeks, I have had this race in mind. His preparation went well. I can’t wait to see him measure up to this French opposition. I think it has the level to be in the right combination of Quinté+. »
7 –
Disappointing in the Prix de la Lorraine, this specialist in speed courses then achieved a performance of choice in the Critérium de Vitesse de Basse-Normandie (Gr.2). It is not everyday, but its theoretical luck is obvious.
Dominik Locqueneux, trainer and driver:
“Copsi (7) pleased me at Argentan by taking third place in the Criterium de Vitesse. He recovered very well and maintained his physical condition working in the pool. It should provide the same value this Saturday. It should therefore not be neglected for a place. »
8 –
Winner of a similar Quinté+ at the start of winter, this brave trotter seems to have regained the fullness of its resources after a bad patch. That said, he has no margin in such a society and has inherited a number outside it. Rather a small place.
Nicolas Bazire, son of the trainer:
“Victor Ferm (8) finds very favorable racing conditions. The horse presents very well in the morning. He is ready to give the best of himself. He must play for the podium, even if he has to deal with this trick number. »
9 –
Disappointing on several occasions, this daughter of Quinoa du Gers has just fully reassured her supporters in the GNT stage at Châteaubriant. Nevertheless, she has rarely convinced on this course and has inherited a terrible number. Our main regret.
Nicolas Bazire, trainer and driver:
“Freyja du Pont (9) showed her form in the GNT stage at Châteaubriant. She finally left properly and that changed everything. The autostart should help him warm up. My mare is ready and has lost none of her superb. This number 9 is annoying, but with a good start, she must aim for the podium. »
10 –
Author of a mediocre winter, this 9-year-old gelding could not shine on the day of his return, in the Prix de la Lorraine. His best performances give him a chance, but his form is questionable. For now, he must above all reassure.
Philippe Daugeard, trainer and driver:
“Nothing replaces competition and Whole Lotta Love (10) needed to run when she reappeared at Vincennes. He should be running in progress. We are well placed in the rope to do the minimum. With a smooth course, a fifth or sixth place would satisfy me. »
11 –
Very disappointing for more than a year, this pupil of Björn Goop has just shown his best on the Enghien racecourse. Nevertheless, he is coming up against a strong party and seems distinctly barred by many rivals. Just an outsider.
Björn Goop, coach:
“I am very happy with the last performance of Bryssel (11) at Enghien. He reassured me after several disappointing outings. If he continues on this dynamic, he can grab fifth place. »
12 –
Starting favorite of the Prix de la Lorraine, the benchmark race, this protege of Jean-Michel Bazire certainly attacked too early that day. This time he will have to start from the second row, which will force him to suffer the race. One possibility among others.
Nicolas Bazire, son of the trainer:
“Tjacko Zaz (12) was angry at Argentan on April 30. His condition at the moment is good, he absolutely does not look 10 years old! However, he will have to be more relaxed than recently to perform. With a favorable course of the race, it can grab a place in the right combination of Quinté+. »
13 –
For his first test under Laurent-Claude Abrivard, this son of Redlight Jet left a favorable impression in the Prix de la Lorraine. Performing well on speed courses, it is not out of the question for places.
Alexandre Abrivard, driver:
“Dénicheur du Vif (13) showed his best face on the occasion of his second place. He will present himself this Saturday in a similar physical condition. If he can enjoy the same route as last time, there is no reason not to see him confirmed. It will play for places in this Quinté+. »
14 –
Unlucky on April 7 at Lyon-Parilly, this representative of Jean Luck has just set the record straight in the key race on April 16. For her first try with François Lagadeuc on the sulky, she can tempt lovers of outsiders.
Eric Frémiot, co-owner:
“Elite de Jiel (14) has just provided good value in the Prix de la Lorraine. The mare has remained very well in training. It will take a bit of luck on the second row, but with a good race, it can take fourth or fifth place. »
