Paul Galea will be representing Malta in this year’s edition of the Prix des Rencontres Internationals du Trotteur Francais organised by LeTrot at the Vincennes race track in Paris, France, on Friday.
The French association keeps to its yearly commitment of calling in drivers from associated countries to participate in this race at what is easily considered the temple of trotting.
Starting at 10:09 pm, Galea’s race is the seventh on the card and can be seen live on the French TV station Equidia.
The Prix des Rencontres Internationals du Trotteur Francais is also a reclamer race and participating horses are on sale for offers over €18,000 in a blind-bidding contest after the race.
Paul Galea has been drawn to horse number 14, Flambeur du Digeon.
Although the trainer is hopeful for a positive performance, Galea will not have an easy task starting from the second row behind the autostart and with a horse that is yet to find his best form after a change in ownership and trainer as well as two months of rest.
Paul Galea, who will be driving for the second time ever at Vincennes race track, will be accompanied for this race participation by vice-chairman Mr Tony Demanuele.
In a statement, the Malta Racing Club wished Paul Galea the best of luck.
