Baden-Baden winner in the Prix Hampton

Chantilly, Wednesday, 28 June: Eight races will be run today on the Derby track in Chantilly. Among the highlights is the Prix Hampton (5th race/15.15/52.000 Euro/1000 m), a Listed race with seven participants (Tertius is a non-starter).

Perdika (Bauyrzhan Murzabayev) won a similar sprint match here at the beginning of the month against Zudu Spirit (Ricardo Ferreira), among others, and before that she finished in an excellent position of honour ahead of Tudo Bem (Hugo Boutin) at Group 3 level in Longchamp. The latter later ran one category higher in the Prix du Gros-Chêne (Group 2) and again finished fourth ahead of Berneuil (Ronan Thomas), whose Group 3 victory in the Prix du Petit Couvert (Group 3) against Bouttemont (Christophe Soumillon), among others, from the previous year deserves a note. The Barberot protégé ran this year in Meydan without a score, but pleased here in the Prix Servanne (Listed race) as third before Amellata (Mickael Barzalona), who won in Baden-Baden, and Tudo Bem. Purest Time (Stephane Pasquier) strengthened his continuing top form with a narrow victory in Dieppe.
