The Anjou Loire Challenge stay in the money of Angevin professionals. Emeraude de Kerza trained in Jarzé by Gabriel Leenders won the race after having spun Butterfly du Mou which cracked in the last meters.

the owners and breeders burst out with joy after the race.
It was a great race. This is the holy grail. When I was little, I dreamed of winning this race when I came to the racetrack with my parents. We are coming out of a bad period. three weeks ago I got injured. And there we win. That’s wonderful
, rejoiced the young jockey Clément Lefevbre.

Otchoa Rouge finished like a cannonball in third place, followed by the inexperienced but talented Gifted Ballooner. Dylane trained near Château-Gontier by William Menuet finished in fifth place.
While Bomari and Dafodil Rose started first, the peloton remained compact until halfway through the course before gradually stretching out and seeing the first hazards. Deauseille ridden by the Mayennais Alain de Chitray was the first to fall, hampering Blason d’Or and Sacha Green in passing.
Arrival in numbers: 10/6/7/4/12/8/5.
