At the end of an intense race, it was finally the driver Franck Anne who won with Hautbrion Colmi (Écurie Jean Pichon), and who won the Prix de The Republican Echo, the second race of the day, this Thursday.
After the disqualification of the favorite, Hollywood Bond, the No.11, the No.4 crossed the finish line a neck ahead. At the exit of the track, the victorious driver, coming from Falaise, in Calvados, confided: “I am very happy that the work is rewarded. It was a great distance [2.800 mètres, NDLR] and the horse was brave the whole race. The quality of the trail was also very good. “
Sébastien Besse, editor-in-chief of The Republican Echo, present during the race, congratulated him on this great victory, giving him the prize.
Reopening to the public
This day also marked the reopening of the Chartres racecourse to the public, with a capacity limited to 1,000 people on the site. And the riders were in the starting blocks. Like Maryse and Carmen, two Orléanaises accustomed to the Chartres track for almost thirty years: “The spectacle, the beauty of the horses, we love it! After confinement, we only wanted to come back here. Whether you win or lose, you always have a great day. “
At 81, Jean-Pierre Dubois drives regularly at the Chartres racecourse
The same goes for Jean-Jacques, who came with his son and grandson. All the more so since he won “a little money” by betting on n ° 4 for the Prix de The Republican Echo : “During his last race, he had a very good time. It’s a great pleasure to come back here, especially when you’re betting on the right horse! “
See you on September 25 for the next Prize of The Republican Echo.
