Horse Racing, 16th day: Enter Arena with Lerena and Victory
The Italian Gregorio Arena will make its debut in Mauritius this week. He signed a contract with the team Serge Henry. The whip, which enjoys a good reputation in the country, made the acquaintance of some of its new residents Wednesday and this morning, Thursday, June 20
Gregorio Arena Why Worry will drive in the main event. His horse, beaten little Bastille Day in his last outing, is among the contenders for victory, as well as Captain Solar, Intercontinental, Vettel Acuppa and to a lesser extent Polar Bound and Not Liable.
It also owns Captain Vedici, engaged in the fourth race, a chance to first order, even if Posse Comitatus is a hard bone in the event, which attracted only six starters. Captain Vedici won once and finished second on three occasions out of a total of only four races.
For its part, the Reunion Johan Victoire will have to wait before making his debut in the colors of the team Maingard. He has not got his work permit. He will attend as a spectator at the Bicentennial Trophy race in which the team will be represented by Maingard Captain Solar, one of the favorites. This horse competing in his second race of the season and saw the form he displayed in training, there is no doubt that he can emulate Ice Axe, winner of the first edition of this award in 2012.
The 16th day, which will be spread over nine races, looks exciting when a reasonable number of horses on the agenda. The best chance of the 'leading jockey' Robbie Burke Campus seems to be in the second 1000m race.
As for the new whip stable Gujadhur, Gavin Lerena, it will seat from the 17th day Saturday, June 29
