Princess Margaret Cup 2019
Jamais surclassé sur des parcours qui ne lui étaient pas siens (1600m et 990m), Black Cat Back retourne sur un 1400m conforme à ses aptitudes, lui qui n’avait fait qu’une bouchée de ses adversaires sur 1500m lors de sa victoire au Champ de Mars (22 juin dernier). Le porte-drapeau de la casaque bleu électrique est installé solide favori dans la Princess Margaret Cup, dernière levée d’un championnat des sprinters 2019 où l’actuel leader, Rule The Night, se pose comme un de ses challengers cet après-midi. Aux trousses de la monture d’Olivier Plaçais, on retrouve également Wall Tag, qui reste sur deux succès d’affilée sur le parcours du jour, Baritone, le n°1 de Jean-Michel Henry, et le revenant Horse Guards dans le rôle de dark horse de cette semi-classique.
