The Grand Prix du Bourbonnais stage EpiqE Series gave its verdict this Sunday December 11th at Vincennes Hippodrome de Paris. It was clear and without appeal. Bold Eagle dominated rivals brilliantly. After wisely waiting in the peloton, the champion placed a thundering acceleration at the entrance to the final straight. His disconcerting victory of ease has raised the enthusiasm of his many fans and all the public. Lionel, second, and Voltigeur de Myrt, third, also qualified for the Prix d’Amérique Opodo Finale EpiqE Series. Bird Parker, as in the Grand Prix de Bretagne, finished fourth. Timoko, author of an encouraging return to Vincennes Hippodrome de Paris, took advantage of the disqualification after investigation of Bolero Love to take fifth place.
