Recent good 2nd <strong>Earl Simon<\/strong> after a nice end of the race, the partner of David Thomain has a weapon in his game fatal: a devastating spike in speed. And when he can place it, as here at the end of a very rhythmic course (partial 1500 meters: 1&#8217;05 &#8221;), this son of star stallion<strong> Ready Cash<\/strong> is one of the fastest trotters of the circuit as l his coach Sebastien Guarato recalled at the microphone of Equidia. It was necessary to overcome the very fast Italian <strong>Vitruvio<\/strong> finally 2nd in front of <strong>Earl Simon<\/strong> who had to start from the corridor number 9. The record of the race was equal here: 1&#8217;10&#8221;3!<\/p>\n<p>Three years after the success of <strong>Bold Eagle<\/strong>, before he won the first of his two Grand Prix d&#8217;Am\u00e9rique, S\u00e9bastien Guarato signed a second victory in the Criterium Continental. <strong>Eridan<\/strong> has his ticket to America but his coach is not sure to introduce him, thinking him especially for a race like the Elitlloppet. On the owners side, the Dewulf family, constant investors in the trotters for several years (they bought <strong>Eridan<\/strong> for sales), the temptation to run the most beautiful is great. We will see what will decide the team soon.<\/p>\n<p>Update on qualifying horses for the Grand Prix of America: <strong>Davidson du Pont, D\u00e9lia du Pommereux, Bird Parker, B\u00e9lina Josselyn<\/strong> and <strong>Eridan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.letrot.com\/fr\/tout-le-fil\/4930-eridan-remporte-le-criterium-continental\">Watch the race<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>4th qualifier at the Grand Prix d&#8217;Am\u00e9rique, the Criterium Continental is a race apart: it is the only Gr.I among the qualifiers and it is reserved for young 4-year-old horses.
