The second Prix d’Amerique qualifier is set for Sunday (Dec. 11) at Paris-Vincennes, that being the Gr. II Prix du Bourbonnais (purse 120,000£, 2850 meters, International).
The 16-horse lineup includes top trotting starts Etonnant, Vivid Wise As and the Bretagne winner Hip Hop Haufor.
The Prix Ready Cash (SWC 4 Ans Q2, Gr. I International, purse 200,000£, 2100 meters autostart) will likely be a fast and competitive affair as the starters include Just A Gigolo, Juninho Dry and Deuz Zack.
The final significant test of the day will be the Prix de Crecy La Chapelle (purse 70,000£, 2850 meters for six through eight year olds) has the Bazire trainee Gently de Muze in the field, fresh for a victory in the Finale Grand National du Trot Paris Turf.
