In the €150,000 Prix Troytown Chase (Gr3 - 4,400m) Don Mirande (AQPS-Turgeon) was brave enough though to take the trophy post to post leaving Polar Rochelais (AQPS-Le Balafre) finish second in front of Isnos (Fr-Limnos), so impressive last time out but rather flat on a ground not as deep as he would like.
"I have changed my mind, said Isabelle Pacault, trainer of Don Mirande. We first thought he was a bit fed up with the whole thing so I decided to let him relax behind. This time however, as I felt he was kidding us, I asked Sam Massinot (his rider) to move early on and take the lead. It worked !"
