Sunday October 27, 2024, Racecourse Saint-Cloud (Hauts-de-Seine). – The Prix de Flore (Gr3), which takes place over 2,100m and brings together females aged 3 and overboth the “Vermeille” and the “Opéra”. Questioned by eleven competitors, five of them aged 3, he promised a great intergenerational meeting that undoubtedly worked to the advantage of the elders, who were unable to control the two kilos of extra weight.
In the heavy ground that she likes, Legend (Fifteen Fifteen) ended the season as she started, with a victory at Saint-Cloud. However, in the meantime, the student of Ms. Ades-Hazan and Ms. Morice has jumped almost ten kilos on the value scale, since she won last March, on this same course, with a value of 36.5 in handicap. She only raced three times thereafter, at record level, in April, September and October, never winning but always placing. She needed the right conditions to win and she found them on the last high level day at Val d’Or this season. She inevitably stormed off in the final straight away after clashing with Irish host Curvature (Lope de Vega). By three lengths Iznik (Zarak), who was racing for only the 4th time of the year, decided, while the German Understated (Nathaniel), who was still well placed, was still in a good 3rd at 1.5 lengths, ahead of the favourite, the 3yo Almara ( Almanzor).
Legend was not presented at the November 2019 fairs at Arqana, where she was listed. His gelding brother Zelzal, aged 4, will go to the November fairs in Deauville.
