…..and win, but our courageous little one “only finished second” in her first chase.
At Questembert on July 12th, BALNILLA, far more relaxed, jumped well but got blocked in the last diagonal line which cost her the win.
Her jockey Wilfried Lajon was congratulated by some members of L’Ecurie Le Pied A L’Etrier, who came to support their filly.
They secretly hoped it would be a first winner for their syndicate.
Patience, patience!!!
